About SOM TOO CHUKWU

"Som Too Chukwu" and its companion piece "Nara Otito" are vibrant expressions of thanksgiving, widely sung during the Offertory procession in Nigerian Catholic parishes. Composed by Jude Nnam, these pieces capture the joyful, rhythmic spirit of bringing gifts to the altar. The opening lines of "Som Too Chukwu" ask a profound question: "What shall I give to God, the Almighty in battle?" It sets a tone of deep gratitude, inviting the entire congregation to join in praising a God whose goodness is overwhelming.

As the choir leads the assembly, the music swells with promises to praise God with traditional instruments—the ubo and une—and with every part of one's being. The second section, "Nara Otito," flows naturally from this, asking the Creator to accept the praise offered by His children. Together, they form a continuous, uplifting suite that turns the presentation of gifts into a true celebration of God's endless blessings and mercy.
