O' Sifuni Mungu (With Lyrics) First Call

I do not own this video or song, it is merely to help people understand what the words are.

[marylou]

seems like every choir teacher made us sing this

[deeplyrooted]

I sang this song in my high school choir growing up. Our teacher would always pick Christian songs and we would learn songs in different languages.

Now that I am a Christian I sing this to my Africa brothers to minister to them and they’re always shocked when I know some Swahili. 🙌🏻 I give God all the glory!

This is a beautiful song!!

[theBL]

Back in the seventh grade, I sung this song with my choir. All these years later and it's still one of my favorite songs. <3

[denialnumber]

i sang this in chorus this year! i loved it so much! For those who have done it know its fun!


Where my Altos at????

[jenp]

I’m so happy! to hear this song, 48 years after this ran in my mind, I listened to it as a kid, I was never in a choir, and I knew this song and the language.🙌

[LucianDevine]

I've done this song as a choral performance, and I have to say it was one of my favorites, and I've done a lot of songs! Our director actually had the choir doing all of the jungle sounds, before and after the song while the lights were coming up or dimming out. The audience loved it, and so did we!

Anybody else listening to this song because they actually grew up listening to this? Or is it just me?

[theoneandonlyme]

im singing this in music and its going to get video taped and shown to children in Kenya

[emilynelson]

Man, I had no idea this was so popular in high school choirs. That's DEFINITELY where I heard it and it's very odd to have an atheist running around the house singing this but this song is fun so who cares :D

[cooperritenour]

I had a solo in 9th grade, and I sang the intro. Afterwords, a girl I barely knew approached me and told me her mother cried when I sang. This song is like a core memory to me, much love everyone!

[nataleebailey]

I learned it listening to the radio station in Jamaica Love 101fm. Still living in Jamaica and still listening but now on YouTube

[kainefaldon]

Everyone in the comments: I learned this when I was in school for choir!

Me: I learned this when I was four because my mom had it on tape and we would listen to it while driving around.

[ScottBradley]

I remember when the Somethin' Takes Over album came out in 1987. That was the year I married the love of my life. Next to accepting Jesus Christ, that was the best decision I've ever made.

[melan]

my dad used to play this a lot when I was a kid...hearing this again has made my thanks for uploading!

[lukasha]

Learned the portuguese version of this in school, for choir purposes. İ remember that we had a kenyan music teacher and he taught us this and also a little bit of swahili. God bless him.

[beaupierrebondurant]

I love this song.real Christian music.

[guygifford]

God's Spirit reached out to His Spirit living in me causing me to come undone with uncontrollable joyful crying at the worship of the creator, after many years of not hearing this song, which I've known since its first publishing. As the years of attempted faithfulness to God have passed, we've come to know each other better, and now deep cries out to deep.

[jadynhicks]

Everyone said they’ve sang this in choir but I heard it cause it was my parents alarm when they came back from a missions trip to panama when I was 6

[SweetPotatersLand]

I love my choir teacher Dr.S she taught me this song and I still know the words 7 years later. I can't wait to teach it to my daughter 😊
