African Gospel Lyrics

(Languages: Kiswahili, English)

Refrain:
Nitauimba wimbo huu wimbo ulio wa kusifu, roho nzito ya huzuni uwe huru
(I will sing this song of praise, to free heavy and sorrowful hearts)
N’taendelea kwa sifa iliyobeba siri, kwamba kwa Yesu kuna uhuru
(I’ll continue with the praise carrying the secret that in Jesus there’s liberty)
Nitalizima sauti zinazovuta watu, kwa shimo la kukata tamaa
(I will silence the voices that drag people to the pits of giving up)
Kwa wimbo mtamu wa furaha nakuja upesi, kwa ajili yangu na we
(In the sweet joyful song I come quickly for you and me)

Ni wimbo ambao umebeba ujumbe kwa pamoja katika usiku mkuu
(It is a song that has carried the word in the heavy night)
Na wimbo huu waweza tia matumaini mwanadamu anapoanguka
(And this song can give hope to a human when they fail)
Ni wimbo mtamu unaweza fungua minyororo kwa waliofungwa awali
(It is a sweet song that can break the chains of those who were bound)
Waweza kuwa na hakika kupitia wimbo njia yako ya kupitia
(Through the song, you can have assurance on your journey)

(Refrain)

Don’t tell me the world is a hopeless old place
And I might as well just give in
To the doom and gloom life’s a waiting room
For the blow that’ll do us all in
I can’t sympathize when before my eyes is a hope shining bright as day
I gotta follow that song that keeps drawing me home
With my feet dancing all the way

I’m gonna sing just as long as it takes for a song
To make sad and heavy spirits free
I’m gonna keep making new music that carries the secret that Jesus is Liberty
I’m gonna turn off the sounds that’ll drag people down
To the pit of despondency
With the sweet happy tune
He is coming soon for His children like you and me (Repeat)

With the sweet happy tune
He is coming soon for His children like you and me

I’m gonna sing just as long as it takes for a song
To make sad and heavy spirits free
I’m gonna keep making new music that carries the secret that Jesus is Liberty
I’m gonna turn off the sounds that’ll drag people down
To the pit of despondency
With the sweet happy tune
He is coming soon for His children like you and me

With the sweet happy tune
He is coming soon for His children like you and me
