The Maasai of East Africa share their stories in song. The En-Kata Choir in Tanzania sings their beautiful music to their Creator. This is just one song of ten for which we will be helping to make music videos so the songs can be shared all over East Africa. Enjoy!
AISIAYAKIYE (I Will Serve You Lord)
I will serve You, my God and Savior
I will not leave You, oh Father
I will not leave You, I will not stop serving You
I will serve You, my God and Savior
I will not leave You, oh Father
I will not leave You, I will not stop serving You
Even if troubles come on earth
I will serve You
Even if the cattle are all gone
I will serve You
Even if I go without clothes
I will serve You
Even if severe hardships come
I will serve You
I will sing to You, my God and Savior
I will not leave You, oh Father
I will not leave You, I will not stop serving You
I will sing to You, my God and Savior
I will not leave You, oh Father
I will not leave You, I will not stop serving You
Even if severe hardships come
I will serve You
Even if I go without clothes
I will serve You
Even if the cattle are all gone
I will serve You
Even if malaria comes
I will serve You
I will sing to You, my God and Savior
I will not leave You, oh Father
I will not leave You, I will not stop serving You
I will sing to You, my God and Savior
I will not leave You, oh Father
I will not leave You, I will not stop serving You

Loved the tune! And it was captured so well. I am an ethnomusicologist (M.A.) with a professional audio engineering background. I have done field recordings in Croatia, India and Uganda, and am looking for other opportunities to use my gifts and skills to promote the Kingdom… heard you were connected to Pioneers.
