Ababa Nna by Francis Uzuakpunwa & Andrew Chukwu — Lyrics
About Ababa Nna
"Ababa Nna" is a vibrant song of thanksgiving that calls the whole congregation to lift up the Creator. From the very first notes, the choir invites everyone to join in praising God for His endless goodness. The title itself sets a tone of deep reverence and affection, acknowledging God as the ultimate provider and king.
The verses carry a deeply personal testimony that resonates beautifully during the Offertory or a thanksgiving procession. The soprano line leads the narrative, singing of waking up in the morning, looking up to heaven, and receiving God's blessings. It is a song that moves from individual gratitude—declaring that words are not enough to explain God's deeds—to a communal invitation, urging brothers and sisters to come and witness His goodness.
When the choir sings the refrain, the repeated "Ababa Nna ndewo eh" becomes a joyful, rhythmic anchor. The interplay between the voices creates a lively, uplifting atmosphere in the church, making it an ideal piece for moments when the parish family comes forward to present their gifts and gratitude at the altar.
