      Baba Yetu is “Our Father” in Swahili ✝️.
      It’s the Lord’s Prayer in a completely different language and people group.
      Panta ta ethne, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.”
      The Soweto Gospel Choir sounds amazing in the original song

    A song in Swahili, translated of a Christian prayer, composed by a Chinese-American for a Canadian game about the history of the world, being performed in South Africa (and many other places, there's even a Korean choir who does their own great version). It's a song destined to bring people together.

    This is the lyrics in English: Our Father, who art
    in Heaven. Amen!
    Our Father,
    Hallowed be thy name.
    Give us this day our daily bread,
    Forgive us of
    our trespasses,
    As we forgive others
    Who trespass against us
    Lead us not into temptation, but
    deliver us from the evil one forever.
    Thy kingdom come, thy will be done
    On Earth as it is in Heaven.
    (Amen)

    I love Stellenbosch so much that I can give you their whole playlist to react to but if you are keen to explore their diverse sound (which I hope you are) because they make everything sound so good, I suggest checking out these songs:
    African songs:
    The Rainmaker
    Indodana
    Pata Pata
    Weeping (mix between African and English)
    English:
    Peter Go Ring Dem Bells
    Angel
    Joshua
    Never Enough
    Them showing they can do anything:
    The Destroyer (a song that uses forces of nature as a metaphor for human destruction)
    Beggong (it's an Indonesian Manggarai folk song)
    I hope you enjoy :)

    I would like to suggest “Sabela” by the movie Sarafina.🙏🏻 When I talk about South Africa I’m immediately reminded about our history and the song remind us about what our youth when through during the apartheid for the freedom that we’re enjoying today. The song is About a black Detective who trade his people to satisfy the white and eventually the youth had enough of him. I truly believe that you’ll enjoy it🤞

    I did not read all the comments yet. But for those who may not know. This song is called "baba yehtu". It is a version of the lords prayer (our father) sung in the swahili language spoken in parts of east africa. It is performed here by the Stellenbosch university choir. Stellenbosch is a town situated about 50 km outside of the Cape Town cbd in South Africa.

Clicks must be announced correctly as different clicks means different things. Example Bixi in one area if the click is more back of the throat it meaning is different than if the click is done using the tongue
