Jesu, Oluesele 'Noigbokan by Fada Vincent Gua Oluesele Mokhente — Lyrics
About Jesu, Oluesele 'Noigbokan
"Jesu, Oluesele 'Noigbokan" is a vibrant Esan choral piece that praises Jesus as the tireless doer of good. The title voices a deep acknowledgment of Christ's unending grace and blessings, a theme that carries through every line of the song.
Written entirely in solfa notation, the arrangement is rich with the overlapping call-and-response patterns typical of Nigerian indigenous choral music. It builds a strong sense of communal prayer, inviting the choir and congregation to kneel ("mhan di gwe tuo 'bu luo") and seek His mercy. The piece was notably dedicated to the St. Anthony's Cathedral Choir in Uromi, rooting it deeply in the local worship life of Edo State.
Choirs often sing this during Communion or as a general prayer of thanksgiving. Its rhythmic drive and heartfelt lyrics make it a moving piece that resonates deeply during Mass, drawing the faithful into a spirit of reverence and gratitude.
