Hymnal Voice
Nyimbo dza Vhatendi & English
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Hymnal Voice began with the beloved Tshivenḓa hymn books — Nyimbo dza Vhatendi
and Phalaphala ya Mafhungo-Maḓifha — and the classic English hymns behind them.
Today it is a growing offline home for hymn traditions across Southern Africa,
now joined by the isiZulu Amagama Okuhlabelela — with more languages and
traditions on the way. Read, sing, and praise the Lord in church, at home, or
far from home.
EVERY HYMN, ALWAYS WITH YOU
• Over 700 hymns across four hymn books — Tshivenḓa, English, and isiZulu —
all fully offline
• Choose your own home hymnals, so the books you sing from are always to hand
• Find any hymn by number, title, or any line of its words
• Large, clear hymn-book typography with adjustable text size
• English translations line by line under the original, whenever you want them
• Many hymns link to their English original — and back
SING ALONG
• Instrumentals for hundreds of hymns, in five sounds — from cathedral organ
to gentle piano — with adjustable speed that never changes the key
• A short intro gives the starting pitch, then the verses follow
RECORD AND SHARE
• Record yourself singing — recordings stay on your phone unless you choose
to share them
• Tap the lines as you sing and playback shows the words in time with your voice
• Share a recording in the app as a 24-hour status friends can hear, send the
audio to another app, or create a captioned video for your status
• Sing over an instrumental, or add your voice to someone else's recording
THE STORIES BEHIND THE HYMNS
• Hymn writers from the Venḓa mission era, the German chorale tradition, the
great gospel songwriters, and beyond — over fifty biographies
New hymnals arrive over time, on their own — no reinstall needed.
From the Venḓa missions to hymn traditions across the region, these songs have
carried worship for generations. This app is for the praise of the Lord.
