Musical Meditations – August 8

Posted by Betsy Downard 
· August 8, 2020 
World Folk Hymns

Siyahamba , or We are marching in the light of God. From South Africa. It’s a simple text, but according to author Michael Hawn, “‘we’ is the community of the living and the dea; ‘marching’ unifies the community, which moves physically and spiritually in the same direction in a kinesthetic response to the Spirit; ‘the light of God’ is a symbol of the creation and Jesus Christ as well as an African refrain for seeing clearly through struggle and darkness to hope.” Quote from Paul Westermeyer, Hymnal Companion to Evangelical Lutheran Worship.
