About Ku Zo Mu Ci, Mu Sha (Come let us Eat And Drink)
"Ku Zo Mu Ci, Mu Sha" is a reverent and inviting Hausa Communion hymn that calls the faithful to the Eucharistic banquet. The score's printed English subtitle, "Come let us Eat And Drink," sets a welcoming tone for the congregation as they approach the altar to receive the sacrament.
The lyrics emphasize the free gift of the bread of life ("abincin rai kyauta") and the promise of eternal life for those who receive Christ with a pure heart ("cikin tsarkak'yar zuc'ya"). The verses describe the Eucharist as the true food of love and salvation, uniting the earthly choir with the angels ("tare da mala'ikun sa") in worship at the altar.
Musically, the piece flows from a gentle Moderato introduction into a joyful Allegro refrain, building a sense of communal celebration. With its layered ostinato sections and clear scriptural message, it is an excellent choice for choirs during the Communion rite, guiding the congregation into deep reflection and gratitude.
