Sanctus Ebu labo Nigeria 3

"Sanctus Ebu labo Nigeria 3" (often recognized by its opening praise, "Ebube n'onwe ya") is a vibrant Igbo setting of the Holy, Holy, Holy. Composed by Prince-cleff Attamah, this piece brings a deeply rhythmic and joyful energy to the Eucharistic Prayer. The lyrics proclaim God as "Ebube n'onwe ya" (Glory itself) and "Osebulụwa Chineke" (Lord God), grounding the traditional Mass text in reverent Igbo expressions of divine majesty.

In the choir loft, this Sanctus is a favorite for festive Sunday liturgies. The arrangement builds beautifully toward the Hosanna, where the choir breaks into a lively, repeating "Hosanna eeh." This call-and-response style engages the congregation, lifting the entire church into a shared moment of celebration as they welcome the Lord who comes in the name of the Most High.
