About Onyenweanyi Aga M Ekwe Ukwe Ihunanya Gi Ruo Mgbe Ebighiebi
"Onyenweanyi Aga M Ekwe Ukwe Ihunanya Gi Ruo Mgbe Ebighiebi" is a vibrant Igbo setting of Psalm 89, a beloved text that declares God's endless love and faithfulness. In the choir loft, this piece is a favorite for the Responsorial Psalm, especially during festive Masses, ordinations, and celebrations of thanksgiving where the congregation is invited to join in a joyful, unwavering declaration of faith.
The verses carry the profound promises of the Davidic covenant, moving from our own pledge to sing God's praises from generation to generation ("ndụ duga ndụ"), to God's own voice promising to establish David's throne forever. Ezigwe Chidi’s solfa arrangement captures this dialogue beautifully, giving the choir a steady, rhythmic drive that lifts the text. When the voices unite in the refrain, it feels less like a simple response and more like a collective vow to keep God's goodness at the center of our worship.
