Baba Yetu - Gospel Choir in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

[@JohnxLocke]

When you, an American composer write music so good that people that originally speak the language enjoy singing it, you know you've done well. Christopher Tin is so good.

[@JH-kw8zy]

Why would I watch this in Public when I KNEW it would me cry??? This is soul therapy. G*d Bless these children.

[@HistoryScope]

I've been looking for a version of this song that was sung by native Swahili speakers for quite a while. This is the first and only I have found so far and I really love it!

[@jacquishepherdson529]

Look for the composition by Christopher Tin. It's the theme to the online gaming video. It's fantastic.

[@thedragon12]

Yep Christopher Tin composer the music and it became for Civilization 4. Which became for alot of people the main theme for the series even tho every game have their own theme songs. I love it because as we all know Africa is where humanity started so to me an african song represent all civilizations which is perfect for a game about civilizations

[@SuperVistaprint]

That view is up for debate @@thedragon12

[@BriannaNjeri9]

The moment they started singing 'Baba Yetu', I couldn't help but cry throughout the song. May God bless them all.

[@jbrupam8749]

my tears did not stop for several moments even after the song ended, the expression of those children - so innocent eyes.

[@noreavad]

I felt like one with our planetary world when the Chorus kicked in too. It's only human.

[@andersfroberg4705]

Likewise, this song stir up my emotions every time I listen to it., and I'm FAR from from being any sort of religious person, quite the opposite actually. But this song just evoke emotion that I never knew I had! It's just just pure human beauty, for both ears and eyes.

Esta musica é, na minha opinião, uma das canções mais belas que já compostas. A musica, adaptada a esta letra torna-se uma linda canção, cuja mensagem é de extrema importância nos dias atuais. Cantada por crianças que conhecem de perto a realidade da falta de condições dignas de sobrevivência e ainda assim conseguem cantar, esta música torna-se mais do que simplesmente uma música, passando a ser uma rica mensagem, permeada por autoridade na proposta pretendida a todos nós, homens de boa vontade. Parabéns às crianças! Parabéns às pessoas que se dispõem em favor dessas crianças!!! Parabéns a todos que entendem a importância de se propagar a mensagem de AMOR ao próximo por meio de tão linda composição! PARABÉNS A TODOS!!! DEUS OS ABNEÇÕE SEMPRE E SEMPRE!!!

Todo mundo se compadece do povo sofrido da África. Só que, todos os shows, eventos e campanhas arrecadam milhões, mas não chega um dólar em forma de comida na mesa dos famintos. Existe muita corrupção envolvendo tudo isso.Temos compaixão dos que sofrem???.. Sim, mas não temos coragem de denunciar a causa do sofrimento. Se só assistimos o vídeo e acabamos votando novamente nas pessoas que colaboram com ditadores, somos também cúmplices de toda a crueldade imposta a esses povos. Assim como na África, a Venezuela, Cuba, alguns Países da América Latina, e outros mais, também tem milhões de pessoas doentes, famintas, e ainda obrigadas a dividir o pouquíssimo que tem, com o Estado. Lamentavel.

[@BrancaEstulano]

Estou extasiada... O vídeo ficou lindo. E ouvir esta música cantada por crianças africanas, é um presente... Não consigo explicar a emoção que me invade neste momento. Que este Pai Nosso esteja a cada dia conosco. Que Deus abençoe o povo da África! Que Deus abençoe o povo do Brasil e a todos os "Afrodescendentes" espalhados pela face da terra!

This song is sublime. It makes me reach a very high level of happiness. I have a one month old granddaughter. Babies do not know languages, but they do know the vibration of love. I can see love into her eyes when she is listening it. Very soon when she grows up, I will teach her to dance and sing this loving prayer of our father. ❤️ Blessings to children around the world.
