Ojochenemi/Ojochegbe

"Ojochenemi / Ojochegbe" is a vibrant and deeply reassuring song of trust by Jude Nnam. Blending English with Igala exclamations of God's greatness, the piece is a joyful declaration of divine providence. The refrain bursts with confidence, asking the bold question: "If God is for us, who can be against us?" before breaking into shouts of joy for the great things the Almighty has done.

The verses unfold as a beautiful, poetic reflection on God's care for all creation. Drawing on imagery of the eagle in the pathless air, the rose, and the shepherd guarding his sheep, the lyrics remind the choir and congregation that the same Omnipotent God watches over them through floods, flames, and the darkest valleys.

With its lively rhythm and comforting message, this piece is a wonderful choice for the Offertory or as a Recessional hymn. It sends the faithful forth with a renewed sense of courage, anchored in the knowledge that wherever they may be, God cares for them.
