WA NYAZE (LET US COME)

"Wa Nyaze (Let Us Come)" is a vibrant Urhobo call to worship that invites the congregation to gather, bow down, and offer their praise to God. Written by Ewebe Happy and Oghenerukevwe Inoko, the piece captures the joyful anticipation of entering the house of the Lord. The lyrics remind singers and listeners alike that God is our protector and that we are His people ("Mai yo awho rie"), calling everyone to kneel in reverence before breaking into songs of joy.

Choirs will find this piece especially fitting for the Entrance procession or the Offertory, where the theme of bringing our whole selves to God ("oma me kpobi") fits perfectly. The music opens with a bright, rhythmic chorus that immediately engages the whole church. During the verses, the arrangement uses dynamic vocal entries—such as the bass leading the opening of the second verse—to build momentum. It is a lively, deeply engaging choral work that brings a spirit of genuine celebration to the Mass, encouraging the entire congregation to lift their voices.
