About Osivwi Na Re Re
"Osivwi Na Re Re" is a vibrant Urhobo Christmas carol that announces the birth of Christ with profound joy. Opening with a triumphant declaration of "Urinrin k'Oghẹnẹ vwọbanu"—evoking the angels' song of glory to God in the highest—the piece calls the faithful to recognize the child given to the world. It is a wonderful choice for the Entrance procession during the Christmas season, setting a festive and reverent tone as the congregation gathers for Mass.
Choirs will appreciate the rhythmic energy and the call to worship embedded in the lyrics. As the verses unfold, the song invites the people to kneel and adore the newborn King ("wẹ javwarẹ shi guẹ kẹ"). The vocal parts build a sense of communal celebration, urging everyone to gather and sing praises. It captures the essence of a Nigerian Catholic Christmas—full of life, deep devotion, and the shared gladness of welcoming the Savior.
