(Languages: Gĩkũyũ, Swahili)
Gikuo kia Jesu, na kũgirĩka (The death of Jesus and His Great pain)
Hau Kalivary; nĩcingenangia (At Calvary, makes me rejoice)
Cindĩrikanagia, ndirĩ na thirĩ (For it always reminds me that I am free)
Naũria warĩho nĩandĩ hĩĩre (And that He paid my debts)
Akahukumiwa, kama mwenye dhambi (He was condemned, like a sinner)
Akipigania uhai wangu (While He was fighting on my behalf)
Kadharauliwa , na kuchukiwa (He was despised and rejected)
Ili nirudishiwe shamba la Edeni (That I may be restored in the Garden of Eden)
Refrain:
Ndi mugure, Ndi mugure, Ndi mugure!
(I am Redeemed, I am Redeemed, I am Redeemed!)
Na thakame ya Jesu (By the Blood of Jesus) (Repeat)
Alilia, kwa uchungu mwingi (He cried in pain)
“Eloi! Eloi! Lamasabakithani”
Akimuuliza, “Baba yangu (Asking, “My Father)
Mbona mimi ukaniacha pweke?” (Why have You forsaken me?”)
Wendo ta ucio, igereha nake (How can I repay such kind of love?)
Woi negetha, ningũkenie? (In order to make you Happy?)
Nima gũtire, ũgehotire (For none else could have)
Kuirutĩra, ninguohonoke (Sacrificed themselves for me)
(Refrain)
Hau uhoro ũcio, ngenda gũtũra (As for me, I choose to dwell)
Ngwaku Ngai, ona hatari muoyo (in the house of the Lord, forever)
Ndeithia kũrũmia, mawatho maku (Help me Lord, to hold on tight to Your decrees)
Nĩgetha ndikauranuo na ĩtũra rieru (That I might not miss out i your Kingdom)
‘saidie kuishi, kwa mapenzi yako (Help me to live in Your will)
Nisaidie, kuushinda huu mwili (Help me to conquer the flesh)
Niwe natamani, neno lako (That I should desire Your Word)
Na hatimaye, nipate uzima (And eventually, receive eternal life)
(Refrain)
