(Sung in Swahili)

Baraka nimepokea, kwako nimetulia mimi (I’ve received blessings, I’m rested in you)
Nisije tumbukia kwa mambo ya dunia  (That I may not get lost in the world)
Kwako nijifiche milele  (Hide me in You forever)
Fitina zanizingira, anasa kila kona  (Gossip and earthly pleasures surround me)
Kwa mikono yako, niweke mtakatifu  (Make me Holy with your hands)
Tokea leo hadi milele  (From now until forever)

Niwie radhi mimi, kwa makosa yote  (Forgive me, for all my sins)
Anipenda, anijali, anipenda  (He loves me, He cares for me, He loves me)
(Repeat)

Refrain:
Kazi ya msalaba, (The work of the cross)
Nimeipokea, nimekubali  (I’ve received it, I have accepted it)
Nitakusifu, nitakuimbia milele  (I  will praise and sing to you forever)
(Repeat)

Ilikuwa ni juzi tu, mwanzo kwangu katembea (It was recent that you visited me)
Ukapumzisha kwangu kugonjea  (You rested in me and I was content)
Lakini kwako zaidi nasogea  (But I move closer to you)
Nishiriki nawe kwa mazoea  (That I may worship with you often)
Zile kwako ndo napokea  (I receive all from you)
Nikuone, kwangu Baba ukinitendea  (Father let me see your work in me)

Wewe ndo wangu tu, mimi na wewe tu  (You are mine, You and me alone)
Nikwone kwangu ukinitendea  (Let me see your work in me) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Siri ni Yesu/Baba   (The secret is Jesus/Father)
Siri ni ye x2 siri ni yesu   (The secret is x2 The secret is Jesus) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

(Sung in Swahili)

Refrain:
Yupo  (He’s here) x8

Upo upako wa ajabu; humu (There’s a great anointing in this place)
Upo utulivu angani (There is peace in the air)
Njooni kwake Yesu, ni muweza (Come to Jesus, He is mighty)
Atawatuliza, maana yupo (He shall provide you rest, for He is here)

Refrain:

Yupo, yupo (He is here)
Avunjae nyila zote (The one that breaks every chains)
Na kubeba mizigo mizito (And carries heavy burdens)
Yupo, yupo, Kurejesha tumaini (He is here, to restore hope)
Kuwainua wanyonge (And lift the weak)
Njooni nyote, kabidhini mizigo zenu (Come all, surrender your burdens)
Atawabebea, maana yupo (He’ll carry them for you, for He’s here)

Mbona mwakawia kuja kwake? (Why hesitate coming to Him?)
Neema kuu ipo, ya ajabu (There is great and amazing grace)
Njooni kwake sasa, msihofu (Come to Him now, do not fear)
Mtamwona leo, maana yupo (You’ll see Him today, for He is here) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Maneno maovu Yaliyonennwa (Curses that were said)
