(Sung in Kiswahili)
Kwa upande wako, nitasimama imara (I will stand firm by your side)
Hata marafiki wanitenge (Even if friends abandon me)
Kila mahali (Everywhere)
Nitazungukwa na neema (I will be surrounded by grace)
Nitazidiwa na nyimbo za sifa (I will overflow with songs of praise)
Nimeona, waliopondwa (I have seen the broken)
Wamerejeshwa tena (Being restored again)
Waliochoka, hupata nguvu mpya (The weary receive new strength)
Roho tasa iliokolewa kwa pumzi yako takatifu (Barren spirits are revived by your holy breath)
Pre-Refrain:
Kwa kila ajabu uliotenda (For every miracle you performed)
Niliona sababu za kukuabudu (I saw reasons to worship You)
Kwenye kila chozi ulilofuta (In every tear you wiped away)
Kuna ishara ya ukuu wako (There is a sign of your greatness)
Ukiishi nami Yesu (If you are with me, Jesus)
Nimuogope nani, Yesu? (Whom should I fear, Jesus?)
Askari wangu Hodari (My mighty warrior)
Ukiishi nami Yesu (If you are with me, Jesus)
Nimuogope nani, Yesu? (Whom should I fear, Jesus?)
Askari wangu Hodari! (My mighty warrior!)
Refrain:
Bila masharti ulinichagua (Without conditions you chose me)
Ulinipenda jinsi nilivyokuwa, Emmanuel (You loved me just as I was, Emmanuel)
Siwezaje kuhisi kubarikiwa (How could I not feel blessed)
Kwa wema wako kubwa, uliomimina (By the great goodness that you poured out) (Repeat)
Post-Refrain:
Kwa Juu yangu (Over me / Above me)
Oh, niligonga mlango (Oh, I knocked on the door)
Oh, ukanifungulia (Oh, you opened for me)
I will Glorify You
I go lift you high
Kwa uhuru nimepata (For the freedom I have received)
Umekaa nami katika dhoruba (You stayed with me in the storm)
Kupitia moto tumekuwa pamoja (Through the fire we have been together)
Mioyo yetu ilijaliwa na woga (Our hearts were filled with fear)
Huruma yako ikanikomboa (But Your mercy set me free)
Upendo wako ni ngao yangu (Your love is my shield)
Goliati hatanizoea (Goliath will never overcome me)
Ushindi wako ni fahari yangu (Your victory is my pride)
Fimbo yako inaniongoza (Your staff guides me)
Mwana Kondoo mwenye miujiza (Miracle-working Lamb of God)
Ushindi wako ni fahari yangu (Your victory is my pride)
(Pre-Refrain + Refrain + Post-Refrain)
Kwa pleasure na Sorrow
Through every hollow
I will always walk in the steps You called me to follow
Katika kila tatizo (In every trouble)
Iwe kubwa au dogo (Whether great or small)
Nitaweka imani yangu yote kwako (I place all my faith in You) (Repeat)
(Refrain + Post-Refrain)
