Luganda, Swahili Gospel Lyrics, Uganda ambassada, Take Me Lyrics Leave a comment
(Languages: English, Swahili, Luganda)
Sometimes I really, really wonder why you take me as your son
Sometimes I really, really wonder why you call me by my name
I know you know me, kabla nikujue (Before I knew you)
I know you know me, kabla nizaliwe (Before I was born)
So naomba Baba ,unikomboe nisimame imara
(So I pray Father, save me to stand strong)
Naomba Baba unitumie, niwe chombo chako
(I pray Father that you would use me as your vessel)
Chorus:
Take me, take me, take me as I am
Take me ah, nitumie Baba (use me Father)
Take me, take me, take me as I am
Take me ah, jinsi upendavyo (the way you will)
Hata kama sifai kuitwa mwana wako (Though I’m not worthy to be called your son)
Give me a chance nitabadilisha mienendo yangu (I shall change my ways)
Usiniache na mwovu shetani Baba (Don’t leave me with the evil Satan)
Ukiniacha nitaangamia ah (If you leave me, I shall be lost)
How many times do I have to suffer, save me the agony my Lord Oh
Badilisha mienendo yangu, iwe kama wewe (Change my ways, to be like yours)
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Take me as I am, njigiliza amakubago nze taata (Teach me your ways Father)
Take me as I am, njigiliza enkolayo nze taata bambi nsaba nsaba ehhh
(Teach me your ways Father)
(Chorus)
