About Heart Of Thanksgiving
"HEART OF THANKSGIVING" is an English offertory hymn composed by Ezigwe Chidi. It is a straightforward, joyful song of gratitude, perfect for the presentation of gifts during Mass. The melody is bright and accessible, making it easy for the congregation to join the choir in bringing their offerings to the altar.
The lyrics speak of bringing our gifts, our hopes, and even our sorrows to God. With its six verses, the piece gives the choir ample time to cover a long offertory procession. It reminds everyone that God is the "giver of life" who provides shelter and answers our calls in hard times, prompting the harmonized response at the end of every verse, "Thank you Lord for you are good."
Written entirely in solfa notation, the arrangement features a lively SATB chorus and a unison or solo-led verse structure. It is a wonderful choice for thanksgiving Sundays, harvest celebrations, and any Mass where the parish gathers to celebrate God's enduring goodness.
