A.F.M Oos Poort Worship Team

I am the worship leader of A.F.M Oos Poort in Pretoria, South Africa.
Your songs are flowing in our church, with a lot of blessings.

This weekend, we're doing "The God of Jerusalem".  We also do 
"Silence, Solitude and Prayer"... "Search Me, O God" (I did a 
translation of Liz`s 2 added verses) and "When I Am Afraid" 
(also translated to Afrikaans).  Soon I’ll send some recordings, 
and new translations.  Thanks for your music and lyrics, blessing 
so many hearts.  
(Philip, from South Africa)

"I am greatly encouraged with your music ministry, 
especially the insightful deep meaning and style...
I'm sure I can teach our assembly some 
good chorus and hymns that you have available.

You have beautiful hymns...  
it is very difficult to find here in South Africa hymns 
like the ones you have on your site."

(Jonathan, from South Africa)

"Thank you so much for your interest in the Afrikaans translation.
Though we may not speak the same language, God’s word is universal.
I truly believe that one day we shall all speak in one tongue."

The following songs have been
translated by
Philip Nagel
from Pretoria, South Africa

 

 

"I was born in 1952 in Pretoria, and started  playing piano
and flute at 8 years of age .
  Beginning with my high-school years,
 I was attracted by the lovely sound of string instruments, a
nd soon
started to attend classical guitar lesson at the Rustenburg Conservatorium of music. 

After high school , I attend guitar classes at the Pretoria Technicon, and
qualified myself in the music field.   For almost 22 years I played
in several groups as a lead guitarist,

In 1989 I met my spouse, got married and we both met our Good
Lord who became part of our lives.  I joined the gospel music
field [17 years now], became a worship leader and ran a gospel
music school where I train guitar musicians and choirs and
people with intention to learn worshipping skills."

 (Philip Nagel,   A.F.M.  Oos Poort, Pretoria,  South Africa.  September 2007)
