I BELIEVE IN ONE GOD

"I Believe In One God" is a vibrant, responsive setting of the Nicene Creed composed by Jude Nnam. For many Catholic choirs, singing the Creed can be a challenge due to its length and dense theological text. This arrangement solves that beautifully by breaking the profession of faith into eleven distinct verses, anchored by a simple, recurring chorus: "I believe in One God the Father."

During Sunday Mass, this call-and-response structure keeps both the choir and the congregation deeply engaged. As the verses walk through the mysteries of the faith—from Christ being "begotten not made" to His crucifixion, resurrection, and the final hope of the world to come—the returning chorus acts as a unifying heartbeat. It transforms a long recitation into a joyful, rhythmic declaration of shared belief, culminating in a layered, resonant "Amen."
