Ulithemba lethu, ugcweli nkazimulo! (You are our hope and full of glory)
Thina sithemba wena wedwa (We trust in You alone)

Sesingabantwana bakhe (For us His children)
Yek’ umusa! Yek’ uthando!(Oh what Grace! Oh what Love!)

(Sung in Kiswahili, a Hymn)

Mwaka mzima, kwa sasa umepita (A whole year has now passed)
Na Mungu wetu ametulinda salama (And our God has kept us safe)
Ni watu wengi waliolala zamani (There are many who have already slept)
Wakipumzika, wakingoja hukumu (Resting, waiting for judgement day)(Repeat)

Refrain:
Uhai wangu, uhai wangu ni deni (My life, my life is a debt)
Ninatakiwa nimfanyie Mungu kazi (I am required to do work for the Lord)
Japo nilale nikiwa naye Mungu (When I sleep when I am with God)
Nitapumzika, usingizi wa heri (I will have a peaceful rest) (Repeat)

Najiuliza, mimi najiuliza (I ask, I ask myself)
Je, maisha yangu yakikoma hapa leo? (If my life ends today?)
Na nikilala kimya kaburini (And I sleep quietly in the grave)
Je deni langu, litalipwa na nani? (Who will repay my debt?) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Kila mmoja, aipime kazi yake (Everyone should evaluate their work)
Ni roho ngapi, zimevutwa kwa Bwana? (How many hearts, have been brought to the Lord?)
Kama hakuna chochote alichofanya (If there is nothing that has been done)
Itakuwaje, kwa siku ya hukumu? (How will it be, in the day of judgement?)(Repeat)

(Refrain)
