Wuese Baba. by Achi, Tersoo E — Lyrics
About Wuese Baba.
"Wuese Baba" (Praise the Father) is a vibrant Tiv song of thanksgiving and adoration, composed by Tersoo E. Achi. The piece opens with a reflective, deeply personal question: "What can separate me from the love of God?" before bursting into a joyful declaration of God's abundant gift of life and His daily protection. It is a song that naturally lifts the spirit, making it a wonderful choice for Entrance processions, Thanksgiving, or Recessional hymns when the congregation is called to celebrate God's goodness.
The arrangement is rich with rhythmic energy and traditional call-and-response patterns. As the choir moves through the verses, different voice parts layer together, calling on the people to sound the drums ("Kuha nen iginga") and play the rattles ("Chaa nen 'shoo") in praise of the Almighty. The music builds into a lively vamp and a climactic "Aliwee!" (Hallelujah), leading into a spirited final chorus. For a choir, it offers a fantastic opportunity to bring indigenous rhythms and heartfelt praise into the liturgy, reminding everyone that no one compares to the Father.
