Kumbaya My Lord Kumabaya!

I went to a Christian primary school and this was one of the hymns we had to sing during morning worship in assembly, can someone tell me what “Kumbaya” means?

"come by here" from early African American language.

Lol...it was killing you wasn't it? Growing up I had a Christian bestfriend and I used to go to Sunday school with her and learn songs too. You just gave me some flashbacks.
