What language do natives use (not Afrikaaners) in South Africa?

I have a CD I downloaded from iTunes of the Soweto Gospel Choir, and I want to know what language they are singing in?

The official languages of South Africa are Afrikaans, English, Southern Ndebele, Northern Sotho, Sotho, Swati, Tsonga, Tswana, Venda, Xhosa, Zulu.

I believe the Soweto Gospel Choir primarily sing in English, Sotho, and Zulu.
