About Ị na-asaghe aka gị Onyenweanyị!
"Ị na-asaghe aka gị Onyenweanyị!" is a gentle Igbo setting of Psalm 145, designed to be sung as a Responsorial Psalm during Mass. The text focuses on God's endless providence, acknowledging how the Lord opens His hands to provide for the needs of all living things. It is a piece grounded in trust and gratitude, reminding the congregation of the sustaining love that feeds and watches over creation every single day.
During the Liturgy of the Word, a cantor typically leads the narrative verses from the ambo, allowing the full choir and congregation to answer with the reassuring refrain. The verses praise God's goodness, His mighty works, and His closeness to all who call upon Him with a sincere heart. Choirs often bring this psalm out for thanksgiving Masses, harvest celebrations, or ordinary Sundays where the readings highlight God's unfailing care for His people. The simple, flowing melody makes it easy for the assembly to join in prayerfully.
