Amenitendeya means “He has done it for me” in Luganda, one of the most spoken vernacular languages in Uganda. (editor’s note due to numerous comments/queries: Luganda is a bantu language, as is Swahili, subsequently some words and word structures are shared. Although it may mean the same in Swahili, doesn’t mean it’s wrong to say that it is Luganda)
This song is about the great things God has done for these precious children, rescuing them from some terrible situations and bringing them a safe place to stay with friends to support them, giving them a bright future. This footage was recorded during the Mwamba Choir’s 2009 Northern Ireland tour to raise funds to commence vital construction of a new Primary school and boarding section on land they were able to purchase at Maya, outside Kampala. The Mwamba Choir are all orphans or underprivileged children staying at Rock Childrens Family Home in Buziga area of Kampala.
