Christ Our Lord and Saviour

"Christ Our Lord and Saviour" is a gentle, earnest response designed for the Prayer of the Faithful during the Mass. As the lector reads the intercessions, the choir and congregation unite in this short, recurring petition, bringing the community's needs before God.

Written by Peter Ikewena, the piece carries a humble and pleading tone. The lyrics are simple and direct, asking for God's mercy and a listening ear. Its straightforward melody allows the assembly to easily catch the tune and join in the response, anchoring the spoken prayers with a unified, sung plea.
