Mba domin Ubangiji, ya tai ma’ke mu (If not for the Lord’s help)
Ai dago be da nisa (Tomorrow would’ve been too late)
Ama ya bada nasara (But He gave us the Victory) (Repeat)
Yeah, we have the Victory!
Yeah, we have the Victory!
Yeah, we have the Victory! (Repeat)
Mba domin Ubangiji, ya tai ma’ke mu (If not for the Lord’s help)
Ai dago be da nisa (Tomorrow would’ve been too late)
Ama ya bada nasara (But He gave us the Victory) (Repeat)
Ai dago be da nisa (Tomorrow would’ve been too late)
Ama ya bada nasara (But He gave us the Victory) (Repeat)
Ama ya bada nasara (But He gave us the Victory) (Repeat)
Mba domin Ubangiji, ya tai ma’ke mu (If not for the Almighty’s help)
Ai dago be da nisa (Tomorrow would’ve been too late)
Ama ya bada nasara (But He gave us the Victory) (Repeat)
Hivi najiuliza, Mungu angempa mwanadamu mamlaka (I ask mself, if God gave humans the authority)
Ya kuamua ni nani ataamuka, ni nani atafariki (To decide who will live, and who will die)
Hivi najiuliza Mungu angemuomba mwanadamu ushauri (Here I ask myself, if God asked a man for counsel)
Ya kuamua ni nani atashushwa ni nani atainuka (To decide who will be brought down and who will be lifted up)
Sisi wengine tungekuwa wapi? (Where would we be?)
Ama tena tungesema nini? (What we would say?)
Sisi wengine tungekuwa wapi? (Where would we be?)
Ama tena tungesema nini? (Again, what would we say?)
Refrain:
Afadhali Mungu si mwanadamu, oh sitaogopa (It is better that God is not a man, I will not fear)
Afadhali Mungu si hasumani, oh sitaogopa (Better that God is not a human being, I shall not fear)
Afadhali Mungu hana mshahuri, sitaogopa (Grateful that God does not have an adviser, I will not be afraid)
Afadhali Mungu ni wetu sote, eh sitaogopa (Grateful that God is for us all, I shall not be afraid)
Kama mwanadamu ndiye anaye peana uzima (If it was a human who gave life)
Sisi wengine tusingeishi tena (We would not be alive)
Kama mwanadamu ndiye anainuwa maskini (If it as a human who lifted up the poor)
Sisi wengine tusinge inuliwa (We would still be in poverty)
Kama mwanadamu ndiye anayepeana majina (If it was a man that gave out names)
Sisi wengine tusinge julikana (We would not be known)
Kama mwanadamu ndiye anaye peana kibali (If it as a man that gave favor)
Sisi wengine tusinge kubaliwa (We would not be accepted)
My heart delights in You
(And) my spirit yearns for You
In Your light, I find my life
As You take me deeper, show me Your way (Repeat)
Refrain:
Higher oh…, deeper eh…
Till the heart of the Father
Is the heartbeat of mine
Higher oh…, deeper eh…
Till I finally get there
The place of heart to heart
You are the air I breathe
Your Word is food for me
And in You I have my being
No one else can satisfy me (Repeat)
(Refrain)
Till the heart of my Father
Is the heartbeat of mine (Repeat)
Till I finally get there
The place of heart to heart
Macho yangu ni ya nyama (My eyes are of flesh)
Haioni kesho, yanaona tu sasa (They do not see tomorrow, only now)
Ee Bwana nakuomba nipe mwanga (Oh Lord, I ask You that You give me the light)
Nisije kajikwaa kwenye hii giza (That I may not stumble in this darkness)
Dunia sio sehemu salama (The world is not a safe place)
Hujui nani ni nani na nani anataka nini (You do not know who people are or what they desire)
Nd’o maana nakuweka Mungu kwanza (That is why I put You God first)
Akili na nafsi na roho (My mind, my soul, and my spirit)
Navikupa umiliki (I surrender them to You)
Kukupendeza si rahisi, Oh God (Pleasing You is not easy, O God)
Naomba nyingine nafasi, mara moja (I pray for another chance)
Maisha ni njia nyembamba (Life is a narrow path)
Pour out Your Spirit on me
Nitafuata lile usemalo (I will follow what You command )
Refrain:
Niongoze, niongoze (Lead me, guide me)
Bila wewe mi kweli siwezi fanya lolote (Without You, I can do nothing)
Baba niongoze, niongoze (Father lead me and guide me)
Bila wewe mi kweli siwezi (Without you I will be lost)
So I pray that You
Lead me, lead me, lead me on
Lead me on (Repeat)
Bila we mi nitaanguka (Without You, I will fall)
Ni siri yako kama kesho n’taamka (Only You know if I’ll wake tomorrow)
Ninajiuliza je ukiniacha (I ask myself, if You were to leave me)
N’takuwa mgeni wa nani kwenye hii dunia? (Who will I belong to in this world?)
Ndio maana nakuweka Mungu kwanza (That is why I put You God first)
Over all, take a lead, I’mma follow
What You need
Huko nilikotoka walinitreat vibaya (Where I came from, I was treated badly)
They give something for something
Sina matamanio tena ya kurudi nyuma (I have no desire to go back)
I promise, I’ll be a good kid (Repeat)
(Refrain)
So/Lord I pray that You
Lead me, lead me, lead me on
Lead me on (Repeat)
Macho yangu ni ya nyama (My eyes are of flesh)
Haioni kesho, yanaona tu sasa (They do not see tomorrow, only now)
Ee Bwana nakuomba nipe mwanga (Oh Lord, I ask You that You give me the light)
Nisije kajikwaa kwenye hii giza (That I may not stumble in this darkness)
Refrain:
Sikunika ludvumo, Babe (We give You the glory, Father)
Sikunika ludvumo, Somandla (We give You the Glory, Almighty)
Ludvumo awulinganiswa (Your Glory cannot be compared)(Repeat)
Kusukela phakadze (From everlasting)
Kube phakadze (To everlasting)
Awugucuki, awushiyani, wena Babe (Father You do not change, You never forsake us) (Repeat)
Wen’ uhlal’uhamba nami, Nkosi (You always walk with me, Lord)
Nasethunzini lokufa (Even in the shadow of death)
Angesabi, ngoba wen’unami (I am not afraid, because You are with me)
Uhol’indlela yami, Nkosi (You lead my way, Lord)
Lize liyotilahla nakunina (Even if my own mother abandons me)
Angesabi ngoba wen’unami (I am not afraid because You are with me)
(Refrain)
Akekh’ofana nawe (There’s none like You)
Akekh’ofana nawe (There’s none like You))
Umkhulu awulinganiswa (You are amazing, You cannot be compared) (Repeat)
Lutsatse lonke lukufanele (Take it, You deserve it all)
Ludvumo lwakho Somandla (All glory belongs to You, Almighty)
Ludvumo, awulinganiswa (Your glory is beyond compare) (Repeat)
