Yes I Believe

"Yes I Believe" is a vibrant and rhythmic setting of the Nicene Creed, designed to make the Profession of Faith an engaging moment for the entire congregation. In many parishes, reciting the Creed can sometimes feel like a long list of statements, but setting these core truths to a lively, memorable melody transforms the prayer into a joyful declaration. The song is anchored by a catchy, recurring chorus that the assembly can easily pick up, allowing them to confidently sing out their faith in the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

The verses walk step-by-step through the mysteries of the faith, from the creation of heaven and earth to the incarnation, resurrection, and the world to come. Because the verses are broken down into short, rhythmic phrases, the choir can deliver the narrative of salvation history with energy and clarity. The arrangement also includes a smooth ostinato section, providing the choir with an opportunity to layer warm harmonies beneath the main melody, adding depth to the sung confession.

Singing the Creed brings a special kind of unity to the Sunday Mass. When the choir leads "Yes I Believe," it invites everyone in the pews to actively own the words they are singing. It is a wonderful choice for regular Sunday worship, turning the profession of our shared beliefs into a bright and uplifting anthem of faith.
