Lord my God; How excellent is thy Name in all the earth
I will praise thee as long as I live
I will tell of Your wonderful love
Over the years, You’ve been more than a friend
And You’ve kept Your word, even I don’t deserve it
And with all that’s within me I raise
This song of praise to You
Refrain:
Onye ri ma’azu? (Who is behind me?)
Chukwu ri ma’azu (God is behind me)
Onye ri ma’azu? (God is behind me)
Osanubua ri ma’azu (God is behind me)
Onye ri ma’azu? (Who is behind me?)
Chukwu ri ma’azu x3 o wenem (God is behind me my brethren)
(From the Top)
Who is the one who’s carried your weary soul?
Onye! (Who?)
Who is the one who’s carried you hitherto?
Lift your hands, acknowledge your God
He’s the maker of everything yeah

Wanaongoja kuanguka kwako (Those who wait for your falling)
Wanaongoja kushindwa kwako (Those who wait for your defeat)
Wanaongoja umuache Yesu (Those who wait for you to abandon Jesus)
Wanaongoja uharibikiwe wacheke (Those who wait for your failure, that they may laugh)

Waambie pole, pole, pole (Tell them sorry, sorry, sorry)
Watangoja sana (They will wait a long time)
Yesu alipokufa akazikwa kaburini (When Jesus died and was buried)
Wengi walicheka sana (A lot of people laughed)
Wengine walisema (Others scoffed)
“Si unajifanya ni mwana wa Mungu” (“If You are the son of God”)
“Hebu jifufue tukuone” (“Then resurrect yourself, that we may see”)
Waliweka na walinzi walinde kaburi (They put guards to guard the tomb)
Ili Yesu asifufuke (That Jesus may not ressurect)
Waliweka na jiwe kubwa, pale kaburini (They placed a huge rock on the tomb)
Ili Yesu asifufuke (That Jesus may not resurrect)
Siku ya tatu ilipofika (When the third day came)
Walinzi walishangaa (The guards were amazed)
Yesu hayupo kaburini (That Jesus was not in the tomb)
Siku ya tatu ilipofika (When the third day came)
Walinzi walishangaa (The guards were amazed)
Yesu hayupo kaburini, amefufuka (That Jesus was not in the tomb, He had risen)

Wambie, pole, pole, pole (Tell them sorry, sorry, sorry)
Niinaye yesu (I have Jesus)
usibabaike mimi nalindwa na Jehova (Don’t worry about me, I am guarded by the Lord)
Ananipigia vita (He fights on my behalf)
Watangoja sana (They will wait a long time)
Eh ni Mungu pekee yake (It is to God alone)
Analalamishwa juu yako (That is complaint on about you)
Hakuna silaha itainuka (There is no weapon)
Kinyume chako ifanikiwe (That rises against you that shall prospoer)
Maneno ya watu yasikuvunje moyo (Peoples word should not break your heart)
Tegemea we utashinda, utashinda (Depend on Him, and You will succeed)

Nyuma sirudi tena (I am not turning back)
Watangoja sana (They will wait a long time)
