Egbe Bia Raen Nosi Jesu

"Egbe Bia Raen Nosi Jesu" translates to the Body and Blood of Jesus, making it a profound choice for the Communion rite. The gentle, flowing melody carries a prayer for spiritual cleansing, as the chorus asks the Lord's body and blood to wash the communicant clean ("kpe mhe khia").

The verses expand this personal prayer into a communal one, asking for peace, joy, and wisdom ("Rofure bi eghonghon") to remain with the people forever. The final verse beautifully sets the traditional Glory Be ("Gaelen Abba bi Omo b'Elinmhin No khiale") to music, grounding the Eucharistic celebration in praise of the Holy Trinity. For a choir, this piece offers a moment of deep, meditative worship as the congregation approaches the altar to receive the sacrament.
