IKO DI NSO by Ezeh, J.O. Eze — Lyrics
About IKO DI NSO
"Iko Di Nso" is a deeply reverent piece for Holy Thursday, capturing the essence of the Last Supper. The title, which speaks of the Holy Cup, draws the choir and congregation into the mystery of the Eucharist. As the voices sing of the cup of blessing being a communion in the blood of Christ, it sets a solemn, reflective tone perfect for the Evening Mass of the Lord's Supper.
The verses draw directly from the Psalms, asking what we can give to the Lord for all His goodness, and resolving to lift up the cup of salvation. This arrangement by J.O. Ezeh also includes a beautiful acclamation, "Iwu Ohuru" (A New Commandment), which echoes Christ's mandate to love one another. Singing this during the washing of the feet or Communion brings the liturgy to life, reminding everyone in the pews of the call to service and brotherly love.
