Interesting. Seeing that the Spanish songbook was accidentally released online and began printing this month. The children's "Reaching Out" video is labeled as song 84 in the download file in Spanish. If the next study edition WT that's released in spanish has the new numbers, the new songbook could be announced at that meeting. Or the meeting could simply be a branch visit.

The lyrics in the new portuguese songbook is more easier to sing, undestand. The titles and lyrics are more personal.

 

Like the revised Bible, it's a modern portuguese.

 

So happy.

I find the new song numbers in April WT for the languages:  Dutch, Hungarian, Italian, Russian,

[On the huh]

I've heard the songbook is in the UK.  Anybody here got one yet.

It's interesting to how different it is the Portuguese version from English version of the new songbook. Still I didn't see all the songs but I think ALL the songs has some changes. While the song 'He Will Make Your Strong' didn't had any changes in English version, in Portuguese this same song has the title changed and some slight others changes.

I've heard talks from Brother Shepp before. Such a good speaker. Did he use an interpreter? I know he speaks Spanish very well but I don't know if he speaks Portuguese.

[Araujo JW]

Yesterday I took some time to follow the lyrics of various songs, and really, practically all of these have very, very significant changes. The lyrics are much more personal, easy to sing, in a simpler language, maybe even a little more poetic. I'm loving the new lyrics!

Yes, he is an excellent speaker and delivered a speech on the theme: "Everyone who calls on the name of Jehovah will be saved". He did it in English with an interpreter. He began speaking in Portuguese, transmitting the Christian love of the brothers of Peru, but the rest was done with an interpreter.

We got our songbooks

However ... Our delivery was made early than planned.  And brothers from the another congregation decided that rather than inform me - the literature co-ordinator - they will just open the boxes and hand out the songbooks themselves.  They took more songbooks than they ordered, leaving my congregation short .  Organisation!!

Thankfully many of the brothers have been understanding, and some are willing to wait another 2 months as I re-order some more.

 

I think that in general this a problem of men.  If our sisters were doing the jobs assigned to the servants, they would follow the instructions to the letter, and not take over another person's assignment or responsibilities without asking first.

I find it interesting that the orchestral recordings were not immediately published in all "languages", after all, instrumental music is not in any language.

That is true.  The only differences is the tags - song titles, the album name etc.  are changed for each language.   Even the cover art is the same with the new songbook.
