African Gospel Lyrics

(Sung in Kiswahili)

Refrain:
Nimezikumbuka, siku za kale (I have remembered the days of old)
Na kunyooshea mikono yangu, Bwana (I stretch out my hands to You, Lord)
Usifiwe (Be praised)
Nimeyatafakari, matendo yako (I have meditated on Your works)
Nashangaa tena, ni tamu sana (I marvel again how sweet it is)
Kuwa na wewe (To be with You)
Uliyatatua, yote magumu (You solved all the difficult things)
Nakosa usemi, moyo unatosheka (I lack words, my heart is satisfied) (Repeat) 

Katika milima na mabonde, (Through the mountains and the valleys)
Ulitembea nami  (You walked with me)
Hata tanuri ya moto, haikunigusa, gusa kamwe (Even the fiery furnace did not ever touch me)
Nitatunza ahadi yako, rohoni mwangu (I will keep Your promise in my spirit)
Ili nisisahau kamwe (So that I may never forget)
Uliyoyatenda maishani mwangu (The things You have done in my life)
Haya yatakuwa mema (These will be the Good that)
Niyatangazie wote (I will proclaim them to everyone)
Nikumbukapo nitapaza, paza sauti nikuimbie (When I remember, I will raise my voice in praise)

(Refrain)

Ulikonitoa nashukuru (I am thankful for how far You’ve brought me)
Nakushukuru, asante Baba (I’m grateful, Thank You Father)
Habari ipo natosheka (My testimony remains, I am satisfied)
Nakushukuru, asante Baba  (I’m give thanks, Thank You Father) (Repeat)

(Refrain)
