Lord, Come and heal your Church

"Lord, Come and heal your Church" is an earnest, prayerful hymn composed by Chieja Ikenna. Written in solfa notation, the piece serves as a deep invocation for renewal, healing, and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon the congregation. It is especially fitting for Pentecost, dedicated prayer sessions, or as a reflective hymn during times of intercession, drawing the choir and the faithful into a posture of genuine surrender. The melody is gentle yet resolute, carrying the weight of the lyrics with reverence.

The song's structure alternates between heartfelt verses and a powerful, unifying refrain. The verses ask for cleansing, deliverance, and the spiritual strength to proclaim God's works in the world. As the piece moves into the chorus, it shifts into a collective, uplifting declaration of faith: "We will draw near and surrender our fear / Lift our hands to proclaim, 'Holy Father, you are here!'" This transition from quiet petition to confident worship makes it a deeply moving piece for any choir to lead, reminding the church of God's abiding presence and transformative healing power.
