Eze Amuru Ohuru by Jude Nnam — Lyrics
About Eze Amuru Ohuru
"Eze Amuru Ohuru" is a vibrant, rhythmic Christmas anthem that calls the whole choir and congregation to celebrate the Nativity. Written by Jude Nnam, the song's title translates to "The Newly Born King," and the music bursts with the joy of the season. From the very first lines, it asks for the drummer and invites everyone to dance, setting a festive tone that fits perfectly as an Entrance or Recessional hymn during Christmas Masses.
The lyrics beautifully recount the story of Christ's birth in Bethlehem of Judea. As the voices weave together, they paint scenes of Mary holding the newborn Emmanuel, the bright star shining in the sky, the shepherds running to the manger, and the three kings arriving from the East. It is a vivid, storytelling piece that brings the Gospel narrative to life in the choir loft.
In the final verse, the song joins the heavenly chorus, asking the angels to sing their song of peace once more. It is a powerful prayer for God's glory to descend into the hearts of men, leaving the congregation with a message of profound peace and rejoicing.
