1 Comment


(Sung in Zulu)

Wabethelwa ngenxa yami (You were crucified because of me)
Es’phambanweni se hlazo (On that cross of shame)
Yingakho ngikudumisa (This is why I praise You)
Ngithi “uphakeme” (Saying “You are the Most High”) (Repeat)

Wena Jehova unesineke (You are a patient Lord)
Futhi uyangikhathalela (And You care for me)
Wena Jehova uyang’mangaza (Lord, You are amazing)
Awufani, awufani nab’abantu (You are not, You are not like man)
Ugcobis’ ikhanda lami ngamafutha (You anoint my head with oil)
Indebe yam’ iyagcigcima (My cup overflows)
Oh Haleluya useyingoma yam’ (Oh Hallelujah is still my song)
Yoku, yokudumisa (Of praise to You)

(Refrain)

Wena Jehova awungiyeki (Lord, You do not leave me)
Ngob’ uyakhathazeka (You worry for me)
Nginawe angisoze ngadangala (In You I will never be ashamed)
Phel’ awufunani awafunani (After all You are not similar to)
Nabantu (Similar to man)

Ugcobis’ ikhanda lami ngamafutha (You anoint my head with oil)
Indebe yam’ iyagcigcima (My cup overflows)
Oh Haleluya useyingoma yam’ (Oh Hallelujah is still my song)
Yokudumisa, oh Haleluya! (Of praise to You, oh Hallelujah!)

(Refrain)

Wena Jehova unesineke (You are a patient Lord)
Futhi uyangikhathalela (And You care for me)
Wena Jehova uyang’mangaza (Lord, You are amazing)
Awufani, awufani nab’abantu (You are not, You are not like man)
Ugcobis’ ikhanda lami ngamafutha (You anoint my head with oil)
Indebe yam’ iyagcigcima (My cup overflows)
Oh Haleluya useyingoma yam’ (Oh Hallelujah is still my song)
Yoku, yokudumisa (Of praise to You)

(Refrain)

(Sung in Swahili – A Hymn)

Bwana Mungu nashangaa kabisa (O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder)
Nikifikiri jinsi ulivyo (Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made)
Nyota, ngurumo, vitu vyote pia (I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder)
Viumbavyo kwa uwezo wako (Thy power throughout the universe displayed)

Refrain:
Roho yangu na ikuimbie (Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee)
Jinsi wewe ulivyo mkuu (How great Thou art, how great Thou art)
Roho yangu na ikuimbie (Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee)
Jinsi wewe ulivyo mkuu (How great Thou art, how great Thou art)

Nikitembea pote duniani (When through the woods, and forest glades I)
Ndege huimba nawasikia (Wander and hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees)
Milima hupendeza macho sana (When I look down, from lofty mountain grandeur)
Upepo nao nafurahia (And see the brook, and feel the gentle breeze)

(Refrain)

Nikikumbuka vile wewe Mungu (And when I think, that God, His Son not sparing)
Ulivyompeleka mwanao (Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in)
Afe azichukue dhambi zetu (That on the Cross, my burden gladly bearing)
Kuyatambua ni vigumu mno (He bled and died to take away my sin)

(Refrain)

Yesu Mwokozi atakaporudi (When Christ shall come, with shout of acclamation)
Kunichukua kwenda mbinguni  (And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart)
Nitaimba sifa zako milele (Then I shall bow, in humble adoration)
Wote wajue jinsi ulivyo (And then proclaim My God, how great Thou art!)

Mungu Hapokei Rushwa (God Cannot be Bribed) Lyrics by Goodluck Gozbert

(Sung in Swahili)

Uzuri ni kwamba, Mungu hapokei rushwa x2
(The good news is that God cannot be bribed)
Angepewa mabilioni, tungetupwa mbali sana x2
(If that was so and he was given billions, we would have been abandoned)
(Repeat)

Na wengine tuna damu mbaya, mabifu kama yote
(Others have bad blood, looking for quarrels)
Mtu hujamkosea, anatamani ufe
(You have not wronged them, but they wish death on you)
Wengine bwana we, tulipewaga sura
(And others, were given looks)
Mtu akikukuona, akalinganisha hufanani
(Someone looks at you, and they compare you with others)
Wewe unadhani angepewa oxygene
(What do you think – if they were given oxygen)
Yangu angeminya, angeminya — nifie mbali
(My oxygen – they would have squeezed it, that I died)
Wewe unadhani angepewa kesho yako wee
(What do you think, if they were given your tomorrow)
Kwanza angefinya, angefinya — ufie mbali
(They would have squeezed it so that you died)

Pre-Refrain:
Ila mungu wee, hajui kukosea (But God does not wrong us)
Ametupa thamani, tulioitwa vikaragosi
(He has given us worth, us who are called cartoons)
Ila mungu wee, mwingi wa huruma
(For God is full of mercy)
Ametupa vicheko, vicheko bila manoti
(He has given us joy, joy without payment)

(Refrain)

Mfano jitu lipate lama za Laiza: lingetuchakaza vibaya
(For example, if someone gets Laiza’s fortune: they would have hurt us)
Au lipate kama za Dangote, Lipewe kuamua Kesho yako eeh
(Or they would be fortunate as Dangote, to judge your tomorrow)
Wengine, Baba zetu walala hoi (For some of us, our Fathers are needy)
Wengine, mama zetu hohehahe (For some of us, our mothers are poor)
Wengine, familia zetu choka mbaya (For some of us, our families are destitute)
Wengine, ndio kabisa mayatima (For some of us, we are complete orphans)
Hakuna anayetujua wala hatuna connection (There would be no one to give us connections)
Kusema sababu ni elimu mbona wasomi kibao ni jobless?
(Saying that it is because of lack of education, why are degree holders jobless?)
Tumewekwa Mahali kwa neema ya Mungu (We have been placed in the place of God’s Grace)
Tunavuka Mapito kwa neema ya Mungu (We have crossed through troubles through God’s Grace)

(Pre-Refrain)
