Ruẹ Ọguan Rọyen

"Ruẹ Ọguan Rọyen" is a vibrant Urhobo entrance hymn that calls the congregation to step into the house of God with hearts full of praise. Composed by Paul Ufuoma A., the song's title translates to an invitation to enter His sanctuary. From the very first notes, it sets a joyful and reverent tone, perfectly suited for the opening procession of the Mass as the choir and clergy make their way to the altar.

The lyrics encourage worshippers to bring their thanksgiving and glory to God, reminding them of His goodness and power. Verses speak of entering His gates with joy, calling upon His name, and recognizing ourselves as His people and heirs to His kingdom. In Nigerian Catholic parishes, especially those celebrating with Urhobo communities, this piece lifts the spirit of the assembly, uniting everyone in a shared posture of gratitude and readiness for the liturgy ahead.
