Easter, English Lyrics, Hymn, South Africa Jesus Keep Me Near the Crosss, Mthunzi, Mthunzi Namba 2 Comments
(A Hymn)
Jesus, keep me near that cross;
There’s a precious fountain,
Free to all, a healing stream,
Flows from Calvary’s mountain
Refrain:
In that cross, in that cross,
Be my glory ever
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river (Repeat)
Near the cross I’ll watch and wait,
Hoping, trusting ever
Till I reach that golden strand
Just beyond the river
(Refrain)

Easter, Hymn, Rwanda, Swahili Gospel Lyrics Gaby Kamanzi, Neema ya Golgotha Lyrics 3 Comments
(Sung in Swahili – A Hymn)
Nilipofika Goligotha, (When I arrived at Golgotha)
Nikaiona huko (I saw while there)
Neema kubwa kama mto (Grace flowing like the river)
Neema ya kutosha (Sufficient grace)
Chorus:
Neema ya Golgotha, (The Grace of Golgotha)
Ni kama bahari kubwa (Is like a great ocean)
Neema tele na ya milele, (Overflowing and everlasting grace)
Neema ya kutosha (Sufficient grace)
Nilipofika moyo wangu (When I arrived, my heart)
Ulilemewa sana (Was completely overwhelmend)
Sikufahamu bado vema (I did not fully understand)
Neema yake kubwa (His Great Grace)
(Chorus)
Nilipoona kwamba (When I saw that)
Yesu alichukua dhambi (Jesus took our sins)
Neema ikazidika (Grace abounded)
Damuyo ukapona (And we’re healed by Your blood)
(Chorus)
Mbinguni tutakapofika (When we get to Heaven)
Furaha itakuwa (What joy we shall have)
Kuimba juu ya neema (Singing on that Grace)
Milele na milele (Forevermore)
(Chorus)

Easter, English Lyrics, South Africa Benjamin Dube, dube brothers, Why, why lyrics, Why must jesus go to calvary 37 Comments
Why, must Jesus go to Calvary?
Why, must Jesus bear the cross for all?
Why, must Jesus die for me and you?
Cuz I know that I am the one deserving to die for my sins
So why? Why?
Why? Why, must Jesus go to Calvary?
Why, must Jesus bear the cross for all?
Cuz we have sinned and fallen short of the glory of the Lord
So why? Why?
Why, I want to know why?
He didn’t have to die
It could have been me
It should have been me.
Why? Why?
Jesus had to die (Why? Why?)
I know that I am a sinner
But he didn’t have to die for me (Why? Why?)
I’m the one, I’m the one who deserves to die (Why? Why?)
(Oh Why? Why?, Why? Why?)
For God so loved the world that he gave his only son
That whosoever believeth in him shall not perish (Why? Why?)
Why? Oh Why? (Repeat)
He didn’t have to die; I fell short of the glory of the Lord
For my sins (I love) He didn’t have to die (I love)
But I’m so glad he did (Oh My God, My God)
I don’t know why Jesus loves me (I love)
I don’t know why He cares (I love)
But I’m so glad He did, (oh My God) I’m so glad (My God)
(I love, I love, Oh My God, my God)
