@zuluboys: Thanks for posting this. I believe Christianity absorbs cultural input as long as it is not contrary to the Word of God. Your posting shows the cultural richness of the Zulu people and, as long as it's content conforms with the scriptures and helps spread the goodnews of Christ, it's mutually inclusive with Christianity. I am a Pentecostal Christian from Nigeria, and I am hooked on South African gospel music (although I don't understand what they say 99% of the time, LOL).

The song: advises us to pray and ask for forgiveness,because only the blood of the lamb can wash away our sinsWe have more sins in this world.We are so weak,and we can't do anything,without the help from Jesus

Excellent stuff. I'v always maintained the view that, it's only at Gospel musical shows that u can get all the audience on theif feet singing & dancing. It tells u how powerful gospel music is.

@BUTONAE same here, I am nigerian too and love listening to south african gospel music. Just glad there are still some people in this world that can still "Worship God"

[Nolye91]

Man, I love that God created so many languages just to worship his name. I have no clue what they are saying but once i started listening to the song tears starts flowing down my face. Thank God, I would like to know the translation please and thank you :)

@BUTONAE ...You couldn't have said it better, "Christianity absorbs cultural input as long as it is not contrary to the Word of God." Culture is "mutually inclusive with Christianity." Thanks for making clarification to such an ongoing debate in our black African churches. All other ethnicities worship without doubt or question.
