Jabu Hlongwane and Joyous Celebration perform a song that reflects on the origin of the group and their classic track "Back to the Cross," sung in Zulu. The lyrics express a personal testimony of knowing Jesus, who forgives sins and loves the singer. The song emphasizes being a child of God, lacking strength but resting in His love. It also speaks of children living in hope and declares that they have no sorrow. The message is one of assurance, love, and trust in God's care.

Jubu traces the origin 

of Joyous Celebration in 

which they sang "Back to the cross" 

in local dialect(Zulu)


Iyasho inhliziyo uJesu ngiyamazi

Uthethelel? izono sengiya laph? ekhona

Iyasho inhliziyo ithi nci-nci bo


Wandithand? uJesu lo

Kush? incwadi njalo

Ngiyingane yakhe

Anginaw ?amandla


Yebo uJesu uyangithanda

Uyangithanda incwadi isho nje


Singabantwana abancane

abahlala ethembeni


Usizi, usizi, usizi asinalo
