Recent research has found that sometime between 1922 and 1931, members of an organization called the Society for the Preservation of Spirituals collected a song from the South Carolina coast. "Come By Yah", as they called it, was sung in Gullah, the creole pidgin dialect spoken by the former slaves living on the Sea Islands of South Carolina and Georgia.Kumba-ya, is from Gullah language, a type of Creol, and thus old African-American origin.(including the Hebrew word "Yah")song from the 1930.These facts contradict the longstanding copyright and authorship claim of Reverend Marvin V. Frey. Rev. Frey (1918–1992) claimed to have written the song circa 1936 under the title "Come By Here," inspired, he claimed, by a prayer he heard delivered by "Mother Duffin," a storefront evangelist in Portland, Oregon. It first appeared in this version in Revival Choruses of Marvin V. Frey, a lyric sheet printed in Portland, Oregon in 1939. Frey claimed the change of the title to "Kum Ba Yah" came about in 1946, when a missionary family returned from Africa where they had sung Frey's version and slightly changed the words. This family toured America singing the song with the text "Kum Ba Yah".This account is contradicted by the fact that a nearly identical Gullah version of the song was recorded almost two decades earlier."
Nothing to do with Hinduism.though there is a similar translitaretd word in Hindi, wihich refers to a kitchen utensul.(maybe one is mixed up with Hare Rama/Hare Krishna/guruve namah, etc etc.)

"The song enjoyed newfound popularity during the folk revival of the 1960s, largely due to Joan Baez's 1962 recording of the song, and became associated with the Civil Rights Movement of that decade. It is a standard campfire song in Scouting, YMCA, the Asian Guides, and others. It was also commonly used in Roman Catholic and "folk" Masses of the 1970s."
STILL< deplorable, and the modern 'Sisters of the Order of Saint Benedict in Saint Joseph, Minn.' are a dieing Order, without Habits, modernist in thought, worship and Religious Life, and have closed many7 of their "Abbeys"and merged into one, due to lack of vocations.
