Ebima Guano Ole Niman Sike Osenobulua

"Ebima Guano Ole Niman Sike Osenobulua" is a vibrant Esan offertory song that calls the congregation to draw near to God. Composed by O.O. Inotu, the piece is built on a steady, rhythmic groove that naturally invites swaying and joyful procession down the church aisle. The lyrics center on the desire to seek God and remain close to Him ("sike Osenobulua"), acknowledging Him as the source of all good things.

The arrangement opens with three distinct verses sung to the same melody, allowing the choir to express gratitude before launching into the energetic chorus. In the choir loft, the real joy of this piece comes alive in the "Final Ending" section—a driving, repetitive vamp of "Ise, Iseo" (Amen) that builds in intensity. It is the kind of spirited conclusion that lifts the entire Mass, leaving the congregation energized as they bring their gifts to the altar.
