MY SOURCE OF ETERNAL LIFE

"My Source of Eternal Life" is a deeply reverent Communion hymn that draws the choir and congregation into the mystery of the Eucharist. Composed by Sam Uche Enyi, the song reflects on the profound gift of the altar, describing the Lord who "made himself edible" in the form of bread and wine. It is a clear, heartfelt reminder of the spiritual nourishment found in the sacrament.

During the Communion procession, this piece serves as a gentle but firm declaration of faith. The verses walk through the personal joy of partaking in the "Holy Banquet," acknowledging Christ's body and blood as the ultimate source of strength, peace, and grace. The melody carries a sense of quiet awe, perfectly suited for the moments of reflection after receiving the Eucharist.

Choirs will appreciate the straightforward, earnest nature of the lyrics. Lines like "Happy are those who are called to this Holy Banquet" echo the liturgy itself, making it an ideal choice for Sunday Mass. It is a song of gratitude, inviting everyone to recognize the privilege of sharing in this source of eternal life.
