Bethlehem
Trad. arranged by V. M. Ndlovu and R. Guggenbichler

Hamm Hamm Amen Amen Halleluja Amen

Ujesu usezelwe
EBethlehema ulele etshanini esitebeleni

Umngane wabantwana
Weza kithi washiya ubukhosi
Ukusisindisa

Hamm Hamm Amen Amen Halleluja Amen

Jesus Christ is born in Bethlem
He lies in a manger
He is a friend to us all and he has came her to give us salvation

Ayu kubanzima
Amacala ami

Ukuya ezulwini

I have sinned and I ask you God for forgiveness so that when my time to leave this world comes. I will be prepared to go.

Inzima lendlela

No matter how hard life may seem to be, if you kneel down and pray. God will listen and answer your prayers.

Soyihamba
Words & music: V. M. Ndlovu


Lapho kulo thando indlel´ ikhona
Lapho okule njabulo mama
Uthando uthando uthando lukhona
Lapho kulo thando indlel´ ikhona
Lapho okule njabulo baba
Uthando uthando uthando lukhona

Uma omuny´umuntu esenzokuhle
Mshayeli zandla mshayeli zandla
Uma esenzo okuhle
Uma esehluleka
Umtshengis´indlela eqondileyo
Hayikhon´ukumhleka

Sizoyihamba lendlela soyihamba
Sizoyihamba hamba soyihamba

Indlela yothando leyenjabulo
Awu kade sayihamba sizoyihamba
Njalo sizayihamba
Laph´okulothando indlelíkhona hayi bo
Lapho okulenjabulo uthando lukhona
Lindlela soyihamba
Awu thina siyabonga lendlela lendlela yokuhlabelela
Sitshaya umculo wembube
Soyihamba ngenjabulo, ngothando
Soyihamba ngesineke kancane kancane
Soyihamba kancane kancane

Where there is a will there is a way. Where there is happiness there is love. When someone does good give them a compliment and applaud them. When someone fails don´t laugh but show him/her the right direction. We have walked this road and we are still walking it with love, patience, happiness, and kindness. We will get there slow but sure so come walk with us.


Es ist ein Ros´ entsprungen
Trad. arranged by Roland Guggenbichler

Akungitshele
Words and music: B. N. Z. Nkomo

Akung´tshele wemtanami Akung´tshele wengane yami

Uzongena kanjani lemithwalo imningi kanjena
Uzongena kanjani ngobi sango lincinyane

Akung´tshele wemtanami Akung´tshele wengane yami
Akung ´tshele uzongena kanjani

Akushiye mzalwane

Uzongena kanjani lemithwalo imningi kanjena
Uzongena kanjani ngobi sango lincinyane

How do you want to enter the kingdom of heaven with all your burdens.
Live them behind because the heavenly gate is too small.
Tell me how do think you will enter.



Holy Night
Trad. arranged by R. Guggenbichler and V. M. Ndlovu

There are many people around the world
Who are not blessed as you are
Therefore we ask you to count your blessings everyday
And be thankful for the gift of life
Everyone has a right to be happy
We all have a right to love and be loved
You have a right to live a dignified life
We all have a right to smile and be happy

Let us stop the conflicts in this world
Lets us learn to live together in Peace and harmony
To make this world a better place
For our children and our children` s children
God has blessed us with different talents
Let us use them wisely and accept that we are all different, but equal in the eyes of the creator.

In Gods eyes there is only one race, which is the human race. So as we celebrate Christmas this year with our families and our loved ones
Let us celebrate the gift of life
Let us count our blessings everyday
God bless you all and have a Merry Christmas.


Enkosini
Words & music: Ramadu

Likhoni xhesha
Leqiniso kunkosi

Likhoni xesha
Leqiniso enkosini

Abakholwayo banempilo
Kuze kube phakade

There is truth in the Lord
All those that believe in him will have an everlasting life.
