Mizo Kristian Hla Hmasa Ber Fixed May 2026

In the late 19th century, Christianity began to take root in Mizoram, a state in northeastern India. As the Christian faith spread, the need for indigenous hymns and music arose. The first Mizo Christian hymn, also known as "Mizo Kristian Hla Hmasa Ber," was composed by a Welsh missionary, Rev. William Roberts, and a Mizo evangelist, Thangliana.
