Mike Kalambay - Loyembo Ya Mitema | Gospel Audio

“Loyembo Ya Mitema” is a phrase from the Lingala language (spoken in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Republic of the Congo).

Meaning in English

Loyembo = Song

Ya = Of

Mitema = Hearts

So, “Loyembo Ya Mitema” means “Song of Hearts” or “Song from the Heart.”

In a gospel (Christian worship) context, Loyembo Ya Mitema refers to:

• A worship song sung sincerely from the heart
• A spiritual expression of love, praise, and devotion to God
• A song that reflects deep faith, gratitude, repentance, or adoration

In many Congolese churches, especially within Lingala-speaking congregations, this phrase emphasizes that true worship is not just music, but heartfelt praise offered genuinely to God.
