Jesu Onye Nweanyi Ebiliwo

"Jesu Onye Nweanyi Ebiliwo" is a triumphant Easter anthem composed by Jude Nnam. It celebrates the resurrection of Christ, capturing the joy and awe of Easter morning. The piece opens with a jubilant "Alleluia," proclaiming that Jesus, who was crucified on the cross, has risen from the dead.

The verses narrate the Easter story, describing the early morning descent of angels and Mary Magdalene's frantic search at the tomb. Her sorrow turns to joy when she encounters the risen Lord, leading into a powerful declaration of Christ as the ultimate conqueror ("Dike n'agha") who has defeated the power of death.

Choirs often sing this piece during Easter Sunday Masses, particularly for the Entrance or Recessional. Its energetic rhythm and narrative depth naturally draw the congregation into the victorious spirit of the season.
