Wewe Pekee (You Alone) by Alice Kamande

3 Comments


(Sung in Kiswahili)

Nafungua kinywa changu, nikusifu Baba (I open my mouth, to praise you father)
Umenitendea nimefika sasa hapa (You have done good for me so far)
Wewe kweli ni rafiki, Unaniongoza ninapopotea (You are my friend, leading me when I am lost)
Upendo wako niufananishe na nani baba  (What can I compare your Love to?)

Taabu nyingi kweli nilipitia (I passed through a lot of troubles)
Hadi nikajipata nikikushuku (Until I found myself doubting you)
Sikujua mpango wako kwangu Baba (I was not aware of your plans for me father)
Ulijua yote nikiyapitia (You knew everything I passed through)
Mkono wako ulikuwa umenishikilia nisianguke (Your hand was holding me so I could not fall)
Wewe kimbilio langu (You are my salvation)

Refrain:
Hakuna mwingine, ni wewe pekee yako (There is no other, just you)
Mbele hata nyuma, ni wewe pekee (Ahead or behind me, just you)
Hakuna mwingine, ni wewe pekee yako (There is no other, just you)
Mbele hata nyuma, ni wewe pekee (Ahead or behind me, just you)

Tafuta tafuta hutampata kama yeye (Search and search, you will not find like him)
Alinitoa toka tope la dhambi (He saved me from the mud of sin)
Kamwe sitaona haya ya kumsifu mungu wangu (I will never be afraid to praise my God)
Siku zote nitamuimbia Baba (All my days I will sing for my father)

Taabu nyingi kweli nilipitia (I passed through a lot of troubles)
Hadi nikajipata nikikushuku (Until I found myself doubting you)
Sikujua mpango wako kwangu Baba (I was not aware of your plans for me father)
Ulijua yote nikiyapitia (You knew everything I passed through)
Mkono wako ulikuwa umenishikilia nisianguke (Your hand was holding me so I could not fall)
Wewe kimbilio langu (You are my salvation)

(Refrain)

Umbali tumetoka, na mahali tumefika (Thus far we have come from, and where we are now)
Ndio maana ninatambua, kwamba wewe ni ebeneza (It is why I confess, that you are Ebenezer)
Sio kwa uwezo wangu,ila ni kwa uwezo wako (It is not because of my might, but by yours)
Mahali nimefika, acha nikushukuru (Thus far I have reached, let me thank you)
EE Bwana umenisaidia, nifike mahali nimefika (Oh Lord you have helped me, to reach where I am)
Bwana wewe ni ebeneza, maishani mwangu oo (Lord you are the Ebenezer in my life)

Refrain:
Ninataka Ebeneza, nijenge juu yako (I want to build on you Ebenezer)
Ninataka Ebeneza, uwe msingi yangu (I want you Ebenezer to be my foundation)
Jiwe langu la pembeni, nakutamani sana (My cornerstone, I desire you so much)
Jiwe langu la thamani, nakuhitaji sana (My precious rock, I need you so much)
Oo Ebeneza, jiwe langu (Oh Ebenezer, my rock)

Ninataka maisha yangu, yajengwe juu yako (I want my life, to be founded on you)
NInataka ndoa yangu, ijengwe juu yako baba (I want my marriage, to be founded on you)
Ndoa zilizojengwa juu yako yahwe, hazivunjiki kamwe (because marriages built on you, can never be broken)
Nyumba zilizojengwa juu yako yahweh hazivunjiki kamwe (Homes founded on you Yahweh, can never be broken)
Ninataka uimbaji wangu baba, ujengwe juu yako (I want my singing Father, to be founded on you)
Maana wewe ni sauti yangu, wewe ni uzima wangu (For you are my voice, you are my life)

(Refrain)

Ebeneza na nga (My Ebenezer)
Libanga na ngai ya talo (My Precious Stone)
oleki diamant mpe wolo papa eh kati na bomoyi na ngai (You are worth more than diamonds and gold, Father, in my life)
Nzambe nakumisi yo (Lord, I praise You)
Moko te akokani na yo oh oh (No one compares to You)
Bisika nakomi lelo Yawe ezali nse na makasi na yo (It is thanks to You that I am where I am today)
Aleluya Nzambe na ngai (Alleluia, My Lord)

(Refrain)

Ebenezer ni jiwe langu, jiwe langu la msingi (Ebenezer is my rock, my cornerstone)
Mahali nimefika leo, Ni kwa ajili yako ebeneza (Thus far I have come, is because of you Ebenezer)
Mawe mengi yako hapa chini ya jua (There are a lot of rocks under the sun)
kuna dhahabu, kuna almasi Kuna mawe hata sijui majina yake (There is gold, there is diamond, and others I can’t name)
Lakini hakutawahi kuwa jiwe kama ebeneza (But there will never be a rock like Ebenezer)

Kaa nami (Abide With Me) Hymn Lyrics by Angela Chibalonza (Tenzi 103)

(Sung in Swahili) – The Hymn “Abide With Me” by Henry Francis Lyte

Kaa nami ni usiku sana (Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;)
Usiniache gizani bwana (The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.)
Msaada wako haukomi (When other helpers fail and comforts flee,)
Nili pekee yangu, kaa nami (Help of the helpless, O abide with me.)

Siku zetu hazikawii kwisha (Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day;)
Sioni la kunifurahisha (Earth’s joys grow dim; its glories pass away;)
Hakuna ambacho hakikomi (Change and decay in all around I see;)
Usiye na mwisho, kaa nami (O Thou who changest not, abide with me.)

(Prayer)

Nina haja nawe kila saa (I need Thy presence every passing hour.)
Sina mwingine wa kunifaa (What but Thy grace can foil the tempter’s power?)
Mimi nitaongozwa na nani (Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be?)
Ila wewe bwana, kaa nami (Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.)

Sichi neno uwapo karibu (I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless;)
Nipatalo lote si taabu? (Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.)
Kifo na kaburi haviumi (Where is death’s sting? Where, grave, thy victory?)
nitashinda kwako, kaa nami (I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.)

(Prayer)

Nilalapo nikuone wewe (Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes;)
Gizani mwote nimulikie (Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies.)
NUru za mbinguni hazikomi (Heaven’s morning breaks, and earth’s vain shadows flee;)
Siku zangu zote kaa nami (In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.)

(Prayer)

Nainua Macho Yangu (I Lift My Eyes) by Masha Mapenzi

(Sung in Swahili)

Chorus:
Nainua macho yangu, niitazame, nitazame milimani
(I lift up my eyes and look to the hills)
Msaada, msaada wangu we watoka wapi Ee ni kwa baba, ni kwa baba
(Where does my help come from? From the Father)
Nainua macho yangu, niitazame, nitazame milimani
(I lift up my eyes and look to the hills)
Msaada, msaada wangu we watoka wapi Ee ni kwa baba, ni kwa baba
(Where does my help come from? From the Father)

Asema njoo, njoo, asema njoo upate pumziko
(He says come, come to my rest)
Asema njoo, jongea, asema njoo upate pumziko
(He says come, come to my rest)
Fadhili zangu ni za milele, huba langu halina kikomo
(My mercies and love are forever)
Mimi ndimi simba wa yuda, mimi ndimi ngome yako
(I am the Lion of Judah, and your stronghold)

(Chorus)

Heri awe nawe, awe nawe, heri awe nawe, mambo yote shwari
(It is good for him to abide in you, and everything will be peaceful)
Heri awe nawe, awe nawe, mambo yote shwari, mikononi mwake
(It is good for him to abide in you, and everything in his hand will be peaceful)
Viumbe vyote vyamtukuza, Mchana kutwa usiku kucha
(All creation praise him, day and night)
Yeye ndiye muweza yote, hakuna limshindalo Mola
(He is all in all, nothing defeats God)

(Chorus)
