Keith Sousa's video: Kumbaya My Lord Fire Dance

"Kum ba yah" ("Come by Here") is an African American spiritual of disputed origin, but known to be sung in the Gullah culture of the islands off South Carolina and Georgia, with ties to enslaved West Africans. The song is thought to have spread from the islands to other Southern states and the North, as well as other places in the world. The first known recording, of someone known only as H. Wylie, who sang in the Gullah dialect, was recorded by folk enthusiast Robert Winslow Gordon in 1926. It later became a standard campfire song in scouting and summer camps and enjoyed broader popularity during the folk revival of the 1950s and 1960s. The song was originally an appeal to God to come and help those in need. *Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya O Lord Kumbaya Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya O Lord Kumbaya For the sun, that rises in the sky For the rhythm of the falling rain For all life, great or small For all that's true, For all you do Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya O Lord Kumbaya For one second on this world you made For the love that will never fade For a heart beating with joy For all that's real, for all we feel Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya O Lord Kumbaya Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya Kumbaya my Lord, Kumbaya O Lord Kumbaya O Lord Kumbaya, Kumbaya Fire Dance Credits to: https://youtu.be/ccMoo5hTM3U https://youtu.be/Cc9BVD_D3BU https://youtu.be/ZUM98lM3ZBc
