Ka Anyi Gawa N'ulo Chineke

"Ka Anyi Gawa N'ulo Chineke" is a vibrant and deeply joyful Entrance hymn that calls the congregation to worship. Drawing its inspiration directly from the beloved words of Psalm 122—"I rejoiced when I heard them say, let us go to the house of the Lord"—the song captures the eager anticipation of a community gathering for Mass. The opening line, "A n̄ụrịrị m ọṅụ mgbe m nụrụ k'aha kwuru sị," sets a tone of pure gladness that carries through the entire piece.

For a choir, this piece shines in its lively call-and-response structure and rhythmic forward motion. The verses build a sense of physical rejoicing, moving from dancing ("A gbara m egwu") and clapping ("A kụrụ m aka") to bringing praise and thanksgiving ("E ji m otito bịa"). As the choir leads the procession down the aisle, the driving chorus of "Ngwa nụ, k'anyi gawa nụ" (Come on, let us go) naturally invites the whole church to lift their voices and step into the presence of God with joyful hearts.
