Last fall we were in Africa
And in just a minute we’re going to call Botswana, Africa
And they’re gathered around with us, and uh listening in
And as we were there, in Africa, they taught me this song back
They said, ‘We want to teach it to you in our language, which is Setswana.’
And it’s very, very simple. And I want to teach it to you
And we’re going to call them in a minute, and the first thing they’re going to hear
Is you guys singing, is this song to them in their language, all right
It’s going to be beautiful
It’s like this:
Re o bama
Re I koba
Naong tsp go Jesu
Lo lorato
Le legolo
Naong tsp go Jesu
O boitshepo, boitshepo
O boitshepo, boitshepo
O boitshepo, boitshepo
O kwana
Spoken:
Let’s try that again, I think you got it
Re o bama
Re I koba
Naong tsp go Jesu
Lo lorato
Le legolo
Naong tsp go Jesu
O boitshepo, boitshepo
O boitshepo, boitshepo
O boitshepo, boitshepo
O kwana
Spoken:
Just sing that chorus, lift your voices
O boitshepo, boitshepo
O boitshepo, boitshepo
O boitshepo, boitshepo
O kwana
Spoken:
And now, Father, we rise up
And we say salvation spring up from the ground
Lord, rend the heavens and come down
Seek the lost, and heal the lame
