UZO NNA (THE FATHER'S WAY) by Emmanuel C. Anumba — Lyrics
About UZO NNA (THE FATHER'S WAY)
"Uzo Nna" (The Father's Way) is a deeply reflective Igbo hymn composed by Emmanuel C. Anumba. Written with a gentle, prayerful melody, the song is a personal commitment to walking in the footsteps of Christ. The lyrics draw directly from Jesus’ declaration that He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, asking for the grace to follow the Father's path of wisdom and purity.
The piece was specifically dedicated to mark a priestly ordination in the Diocese of Minna, making it a fitting choice for moments of consecration and religious commitment. The verses reflect on Christ's sacrifice of love on the cross and the call to show that same love to our fellow men as a true form of worship.
Marked by the composer as suited for Communion, the song’s steady pacing provides a reverent backdrop as the congregation approaches the altar. Choirs will find the vocal textures in the chorus—where the parts weave together the words for wisdom and purity—especially moving, creating a profound atmosphere of dedication and faith.
