Prayer of the Faithful in LATIN

This compilation brings together several short, heartfelt liturgical responses and prayers, designed to enrich different moments of the Mass. At its core are settings for the Prayer of the Faithful, offering choirs options in Latin ("Exaudi Nos Domine" and "Audi Ora Sionem") as well as Igbo ("Nuru Oku Anyi"). These brief, harmonised acclamations allow the congregation and choir to lift their intercessions with a unified, prayerful voice.

Beyond the intercessions, the collection includes a reverent Efik setting of the Penitential Rite ("Obong Tua Nnyin Mbom") and a thanksgiving responsorial piece, "How Can I Repay The Lord," which reflects on God's deliverance and protection. A unique addition is the earnest English petition "Help Us In Our Exams," originally dedicated to final-year students, capturing the real-life hopes and anxieties of young choristers seeking divine assistance.

Together, these pieces offer a versatile repertoire for a Nigerian Catholic choir. Whether pleading for mercy in Efik, offering thanksgiving in English, or chanting ancient Latin petitions, the music remains accessible and deeply rooted in the everyday worship experience of the parish.
