We Praise Your Name

"We Praise Your Name" is a majestic and joyful hymn of exaltation composed by Jude Nnam. Drawing its lyrical inspiration from King David’s prayer in 1 Chronicles, the song is a sweeping declaration of God’s supreme power, greatness, and unending reign. With its bright, confident melody, it is a natural choice for the Entrance or Recessional procession, instantly lifting the congregation's voices in unified praise as Mass begins or concludes.

The arrangement features a steady, grounding ostinato—"We praise your glorious Name O Lord"—that the choir maintains beneath the verses. This creates a rich, layered texture while the lead voices proclaim God as the ruler of all, the source of honour, riches, and strength. The score also includes a dedicated Alleluia acclamation verse, giving worship leaders the flexibility to adapt the piece as a festive Gospel Acclamation during the Liturgy of the Word.
