About Ihe M Nwere Ka M Ga Enye Dinwenu
"Ihe M Nwere Ka M Ga Enye Dinwenu" is a joyful and rhythmic Igbo offertory hymn that captures the heart of thanksgiving. The title translates to a personal pledge: what I have is what I will give to the Lord. In the choir loft, this piece is a favorite for the presentation of gifts, reminding the congregation that God deserves our very best—"sọ onyinye nke dị mma" (only good gifts).
The arrangement features a striking interplay between the choir and a tenor soloist. While the main chorus dances with traditional Igbo harmonies, a distinct English solo section ("Only you are my King, all I have that I give to you") adds a deeply personal moment of surrender before the full choir responds.
During Mass, the eight short verses are perfect for accompanying a long offertory procession. The simple, repeating responses of "Ihe ọma" (Good things) and "Ezi Chukwu" (Good God) make it easy for the faithful to join their voices with the choir as they bring their gifts and intentions to the altar.
