Siswati Hymn
Praise the Lord! Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. (Psalm 150:6)
The Swazi people of Eswatini love praising God. When someone sings, everyone adds harmony and praises together. There is also a fun dance that moves the body naturally. However, although there are many different hymns and children's hymns used in worship, it is unfortunate that the melodies are usually in the memories of a few people and do not exist in sheet music. So, we at Africa NTjilo Empowerment, Eswatini Medical Christian University, and Spiritual Wave Mission formed a Siswati hymn score compilation committee and began the transcription work. Let's prepare sheet music and lyrics and sing beautiful Swazi praises together through various performances. Use of sheet music is free.
