hello friends friend #openmic see you again at the hive open mic and welcome to my blog samuelstifenHive account@samuelstifen I invite friends not only to watch my performance but let's join in this event and participate for music and show your talent and I look forward to seeing you too.

For Hive Open Mic 325, we will be exploring the following theme: " A Cappella Singing". Everyone is encouraged to express and connect through this theme.

after i found out how to sing a cappella a melody that doesn't use music or instruments usually sings this is often used with chorus singing it's not easy may have to memorize the rhythm of tones and scales,i often sing in church with children choir and that's not so easy maybe we can learn to get accustomed by singing with a cappella hope we can try.

in this theme on week 325 i performed a song called siya hamba which was released and popularized by andreas van tonder.

This song is from South Africa, possibly as a Zulu folk tune. It was rewritten as a Christian hymn by Andries Van Tonder in 1952 and in 1078 "discovered" and recorded by the Swedish choral group, Fjedur. After the recording, this song became popular around the world, especially through churches and schools. soucer source

maybe some friends of friends know this song or have also listened to it once we took him to church by playing a cappella.

I sing this song with the notes that I use with soprano and tenor or one and three voices. I try to practice this song after a long time. I haven't sung in our church, it may be a little difficult and I have some shortness of breath because the song is so high and I follow the original note created on the song but I am happy to finish it hope you enjoy listening to it ok

and syaa always brings friends if you see my performance come and try to participate in this event hopefully the city can meet and share our beautiful talents thank you

This song conveys a message of unity, hope and steadfast faith in the face of hard times.and some symbolic from this song apply

Journey Symbolism: Walking in the light represents a life guided by God's guidance, truth and love.

Communal Meaning: The use of "We" represents togetherness. The song teaches that humanity does not walk alone, but rather supports each other as a community in the face of obstacles.

Symbol of Freedom & Resistance: During the apartheid era in South Africa, this song became very popular and was adopted as a liberation song. Its uplifting rhythms became a form of peaceful resistance, unity and hope for a brighter future.

and maybe this is all that can be conveyed in this song may friends who see and listen happy and comfortable with the song I brought these lyrics which I put below so that friends can sing for our journey and helplessness in God's light path.
