Makkala Sankeerthane

This app provides a collection of Christian lyrics specifically designed for children authored and published by Rev. M.S. Paul 78 years ago. Bringing this masterpiece back to the Christian community has been a long-cherished dream of Mr. Santosh Jogul from Hubballi. When the idea arose to transition this book, originally in print, into an electronic medium with melodies, the original copy of the work was provided by the author’s family. This collection has now been published with 10 additional lyrics for children from the Christian Kannada Lyrics.

The development of this application was spearheaded by Mr. Roshan Jathanna, a computer engineer from Udupi. The hymns compiled by Mr. Santosh Jogul from Hubballi, were typed by Mrs. Hanna David Goni from Hubballi, while the draft was edited by Mr. Bennet Amanna from Mangalore. The typesetting was done by Mr. Nitin Nadakattin from Hubballi. Instrumental accompaniments were provided by Mr. Devdana Doddamani and Mr. Sukumar Mutthalageri from Dharwad, as well as Mr. Alex Ronad from Gadag. The audio recording was handled by Mr. Rohan Desai, owner of R.D. Studio in Hubballi.

Few songs numbered 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 11, 12, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 42, 43, 45, 46, 48 do not have tunes yet.
