I Believe In God

"I Believe In God" is a vibrant, call-and-response setting of the Creed that transforms the traditional profession of faith into an engaging dialogue. Instead of a straight recitation, the song breaks the articles of faith into rhythmic, bite-sized lines—from "Mighty Father I believe" to "He ascended into Heaven." After each declaration, the choir or congregation answers with an emphatic "do you believe?" before resolving into a confident "I believe."

This interactive structure makes it a favorite for the Credo during Sunday Mass in many Nigerian parishes. The repetitive, answering motif keeps the congregation spiritually alert and actively involved in the words they are singing. It takes the profound mysteries of the Church—the incarnation, the crucifixion, the resurrection, and the Holy Spirit—and grounds them in a lively, communal affirmation.

Worship leaders often choose this piece for festive Sundays or youth-led Masses where a joyful, rhythmic energy is welcome. By turning the Creed into a shared question and answer, the song reminds everyone in the pews that faith is both a personal conviction and a collective journey.
