African Gospel Lyrics

(Sung in Swahili)

Refrain:
Kwako unipaye uzima (To You who gives me life)
Nakupa moyo wangu mzima (I give You my whole heart)
Umeniwezesha kushinda (You enabled me to overcome)
Niliogopa yangenishinda (I had been afraid that I would be defeated)

Majanga tumeshinda, magonjwa tumeshinda (We have won over disasters and disease)
Mitego ya maadui, yote tumeshinda (The enemy’s traps, we’ve overcome all)
Mawimbi na dhoruba, eh Bwana tumeshinda (Winds and waves, Oh Lord we have overcome)
Na tuliogopa yangetushinda (We were afraid that they would defeat us)
Milima na mabonde, eh Bwana tumepita (Mountains and valleys, Lord we have passed through)
Yal’o tutetemesha, Bwana umetuliza (What made us tremble, Lord You have calmed it)
Yal’o tuogopesha, umeondoa mashaka (What made us afraid, Lord You have removed our fear)
Na tuliogopa yangetushinda (We were afraid that we would be defeated)

(Refrain)

Sasa nakupa shukrani zangu, nakupa (Now I give you all my thanks)
Baba pokea sadaka yangu ya sifa (Father receive my offering of praise)
Bwana nakupa moyo wangu, nakupa (Lord I give You my heart)
Nakupa moyo wangu mzima (I give You my whole heart) (Repeat)

(Refrain)
