(W) Wa Wa Wa Emimimo

How cool is it to learn a new song in a language you don't normal speak or hear?

When my Choir Director first handed us this song, we all snickered and said, "What is this?" We made funny sounds using WaWaWaWa, we sounded like a bunch of little babies.

Once we heard the song and started singing it, we realized it was pretty darn cool.

It is a traditional Hymn in Nigerian and it means - Come, O Holy Spirit Come.

This is our Church choir singing this song. However, since I'm in the middle of all of us, it sounds very muddled and bad, I assure you, we sound much better. But you get the idea of how the tune goes.

Easy enough...no?
