The Modimo Triology - Stanford Talisman (Winter Show 2019)

The Modimo Trilogy is a combination of three hymns originally performed by the Soweto Gospel Choir. The trilogy opens with "Modimo," a song of awe and wonder at creation, and continues with "Izwi Lahlab'Inhliziyo Yami," a soulful confession of sin and proclamation of grace. The piece concludes with "Ke Na Le Modisa," a traditional South African interpretation of Psalm 23. Two of the 11 official languages of South Africa are represented in the trilogy. "Modimo" and "Ke Na Le Modisa" are sung in Sotho, and "Izwi Lahlab'Inhliziyo Yami" is in Zulu.
Soloists: Bria Holmes-Lewis, Paisley Hemolele Richards, Uma Phatak, Marie Bland, Madison Ambroise
Pats: Gareth
Lyrics in English:
Mighty God, we thank you
Everything and anything was made by you
Oh Mighty Lord, we thank you
The word of God touched my heart and showed me the wrongs I had done. He accepted my sins at Golgotha, oh how sweet His grace and love. At Golgotha, my sins were forgiven.
The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want
His name is Jehova, the living
God /He leads me to cool waters
