HOSSANA

"Hossana" is a vibrant, rhythmic setting of the Sanctus that brings a burst of joyful energy to the Eucharistic Prayer. Arranged by Ugeh Osita M., the piece opens with a reverent call-and-response—declaring God's power and might—before launching into a spirited chorus that invites the whole congregation to join in. The soaring instruction, "Let me hear you singing Hosanna," sets a celebratory tone that carries through the entire arrangement.

In the choir loft, this setting is a delight to sing. The verses cover the traditional liturgical text—praising the Lord whose glory fills heaven and earth, and blessing He who comes in the Lord's name—while keeping the rhythm lively and engaging. It is a wonderful choice for festive Sunday Masses, lifting the hearts of the faithful just as the bread and wine are prepared for consecration.
