Story Behind the Song
“Ndikhokhele Bawo” is a traditional South African Christian song in Xhosa; the title is commonly translated “Lead me, Father.” Its text is a prayer asking God to guide the singer through a sinful or dark world. It is widely circulated in oral and choral traditions, so no individual author, composer, or date is securely documented.
