African Gospel Lyrics

(Sung in Swahili)

Repeat: Baba niambie Baba, nisikie sauti yako (Father speak to me, that I may hear Your voice)
Baba niambie Baba, nisikie sauti yako (Father speak to me, that I may hear Your voice)
Baba zungumza na mimi, nisikie sauti yako (Father talk to me, that I may hear Your voice)
Mtoto wako, sema na mimi, nisikie sauti yako (Speak to me Your child, that I may hear Your voice)
Mwanao nakuhitaji Baba, nisikie sauti yako (Your child needs You Father, to hear Your voice)
Sauti yako ya huruma Baba, niambie mwanao (Your compassionate voice, speak to Your child)
Sauti yako ya upole, niambie nisikie na mimi (Your gentle voice, speak that I may hear it)
Sauti yenye uponyaji Baba, niko hapa mwanao (The healing voice father, I am here-Your child)
Sauti yenye matumaini Baba, natamani kusikia kwako (Your hopeful voice Father, I desire to Hear from You)

Refrain:
Repeat: Nisikie sauti yako, nisikie sauti yako (To hear Your voice, to hear Your voice)
Oh Baba, Oh Baba (Oh father, Oh father)
Oh baba, kwenye shida yangu (Oh father, in my troubles)
Kwenye jaribu hili, kwenye mateso haya (In my trials, in these challenges)
Kwenye magumu yangu, mimi mwanao (In my difficulties, me Your child)
Sauti ya upole, sauti yako Yesu (A compassionate voice, is Your voice Jesus)
Sauti ya amani Baba, sauti ya muujiza (A peaceful voice Father, a voice of miracles)
Sauti yenye ushindi, sauti ya baraka (A victorious voice, a voice with blessings)
Sauti ya upendo, sauti yako Baba (A loving voice, is Your Voice Father)
Niko hapa Baba, sauti ya muujiza (I am here Father, Miraculous voice)
Oh Baba, Oh Baba (Oh Father, Oh Father) x2

Repeat: Baba niambie Baba, nisikie sauti yako (Father speak to me, that I may hear Your voice)
Wanadamu wana maneno Baba, bali wewe una neno kwangu
(Humans have  many words, but You have a word for me)
Nikikwambia shida zangu Baba, siwezi kusikia kwa mwingine
(When I tell You my troubles Father, I will not hear from others)
Wewe Baba ukisema ndio, hakuna wa kusema hapana
(When You say yes father, there’s none who can say no)
Katikati wa watesi wangu, nisikie sauti yako Baba
(In the midst of my tormentors, to hear Your voice Father)
Katikati ya adui zangu, nisikie sauti yako Baba
(In the middle of my enemies, to hear Your voice Father)
Niliwalilia wanadamu Baba, Wakaniacha na machungu yangu
(I cried to people, and they left me with my pain)
Nabii Eliya alipokuita baba, ulishuka kwa moto
(When prophet Elijah called You, You descended in fire)
Musa kwenye mlima sinai, ulishuka kwa kishindo
(Moses on Mount Sinai, You descended with a roar)

Ninaomba Baba yangu, usikie maombi yangu (My father I pray, that You would hear my prayers)
Ni ombi langu Baba, nisikie na mimi (It is my prayer Father, listen to me as well)
Ni maombi yangu Baba, tazama shida zangu (It is my prayer,  for you to regard my troubles)
Ni maombi yangu kwako Bwana, nisikie sauti yako (It is my prayer to you Father, to hear your voice)
Sauti ya huruma Baba, eh Baba (Your compassionate voice Father, Oh Father)

(Refrain)
