Nu'oli (Glad Tidings)—Robert Lowry/arr. Jace
Kaholokula Saplan. Originally known as Glad
Tidings, this hymn was translated by Makua
Laiana, an early missionary who arrived in

life amongst the Hawaiian people. According to
Hawaiian scholars, this passage was chosen
to be sung at the first public worship of a
Congregationalist church on April 23, 1820,

2. This lovely a cappella arrangement of the
