Refrain :
Up from the grave he arose;
with a mighty triumph o’er his foes;
he arose a victor from the dark domain,
and he lives forever, with his saints to reign.
He arose! He arose! Hallelujah! Christ arose!
Low in the grave he lay, Jesus my Savior, waiting the coming day, Jesus my Lord!
Vainly they watch his bed, Jesus my Savior, vainly they seal the dead, Jesus my Lord! [Refrain]
Death cannot keep its prey, Jesus my Savior; he tore the bars away, Jesus my Lord! [Refrain]
Anyi ario gi, nara Aja anyi, Ezi Chukwu, Ezi Chukwu, nabata ya…
The is a very popular Consencration Hymn written by Obieli Udoka.

The Odo Aguntan was composed in the Traditional Ibadan Bata style in the minor mode which gives it a majestic grace coupled with unresolved picardi thirds which portray a tingling feeling of emptiness required to put you in the right mood for penitence.

Obioha Ogbonna
A young and largely unknown composer, with a couple of beautiful songs this year. Which Include;

Mimo and Odo Aguntan (Obioha Ogbonna)
The Mimo is purely afro beat style with a little feeling of Sunny Ade, the ostinato under the solo line is another attest to his understanding of Counterpoints and it takes the meaning of Sanctus to a whole other level.

Hello,
This is a Hausa song Titled Ruhumai Eucharisti. It is a Eucharistic Anthem which means Eucharistic Spirit
Its Chords and Movement is derived from Modern Hausa Popular Music.
It was written while i was in the NYSC Orientation camp
It is dedicated to a friend who died during that time in which the Holy Eucharist gave me the strength to overcome the sadness which inspired the lyrics of the song.
It ends with a descant duet which crowns the song with a soulful beauty.

Kindly Enjoy and teach your choirs at home.
Have a nice day.
This is one of the best Igbo Liturgical songs you may ever hear in your life it was composed by one of the most creative Nigerian Composers of the 21st Century Charles Onwubuya
This is a decription of the song from the composer himself.
Abu Umu Zayon
_A Psalmody of the children of Zion_
A piece of exuberant praise singing with a boisterous rhythmic accompaniment. This piece exemplifies the intensity of prayer and praise sessions on mountains, crusade grounds or whatever venue where there’s a fellowship of vibrant and charismatic Christians, bourne out of the excitement of answered prayers or the anguish of long-lasting suffering or simply praising God in spirit and truth in communion with the Heavenly hosts.
This piece sort to bring us back home as Africans and particularly Nigerians by personalising or as the case may be nationalizing the subject- Zion as Nigeria in a bid to keep the light of prayer burning for our dear country in these perilous times.
Sing we all with a heart of love and the heavens will harken to us.
Onwubuya Ikechukwu Charles.
