K'ANYI KULIENU

This score brings together two beautiful Igbo Communion hymns, "K'anyi Kulienu" and "Ka M Biri Nime Unu", both centered on the mystery of the Eucharist. The first piece, "K'anyi Kulienu", acts as a gentle but firm call to action. It invites the congregation to rise and approach the Lord Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. The verses remind us of the precious blood shed on Calvary and urge us to come forward with pure hearts and love. It is an ideal song for the start of the Communion procession, setting a reverent and focused mood as the faithful step out of their pews.

The second piece, "Ka M Biri Nime Unu", shifts the perspective to Christ Himself, calling His friends and faithful ones to come and eat. The lyrics speak of the bread from heaven that gives eternal life, reminding the communicant to examine their conscience and approach with joy. Singing these pieces during the Communion rite helps the choir guide the congregation into a deeper sense of adoration and gratitude for the bread of angels.
