Pela primeira vez na história dos video games, um jogo foi premiado com o Grammy — considerado o Oscar da música. O vencedor foi Christopher Tin, compositor e arranjador da canção “Baba Yetu”, premiada na categoria de melhor arranjo instrumental acompanhado de vocalistas. “Baba Yetu” é o tema principal do jogo Civilization IV, de 2005, e tem a participação do Coral Gospel de Soweto.

Até hoje Baba Yetu permanece sendo a única música de um jogo que foi premiada com um Grammy.

A letra é uma tradução em Swahili da oração "Pai Nosso".

Swahili (letra original)

Baba yetu, yetu uliye
Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye
M jina lako e litukuzwe
Baba yetu, yetu uliye
Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye
M jina lako e litukuzwe
Utupe leo chakula chetu
Tunachohitaji utusamehe
Makosa yetu, hey
Kama nasi tunavyowasamehe
Waliotukosea, usitutie
Katika majaribu, lakini
Utuokoe, na yule, milele na milele
Baba yetu, yetu uliye
Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye
M jina lako e litukuzwe
Baba yetu, yetu uliye
Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye
M jina lako e litukuzwe
Ufalme wako ufike utakalo
Lifanyike duniani kama mbinguni, amina
Baba yetu, yetu uliye
Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye
M jina lako e litukuzwe
Baba yetu, yetu uliye
Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye
M jina lako e litukuzwe
Utupe leo chakula chetu
Tunachohitaji utusamehe
Makosa yetu, hey
Kama nasi tunavyowasamehe
Waliotukosea, usitutie
Katika majaribu, lakini
Utuokoe na yule msiba milele
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye (Yetu, amina)
M jina lako e litukuzwe (Baba yetu)
Baba yetu, yetu, uliye (Yetu, amina)
M jina lako e litukuzwe (Baba yetu)
