Kuoshwa kwa damu (Are you washed in the blood)

Umeoshwa kwa damu ya kondoo? (Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?)

Wamwendea yesu kwa kusafiwa (Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing power?)
Na kuoshwa kwa damu ya kondoo (Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?)
Je, neema yake umemwagiwa? (Are you fully trusting in His grace this hour?)
Umeoshwa kwa damu ya kondoo (Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?)

Wamwandama daima mkombozi (Are you walking daily by the Savior’s side?)
Na kuoshwa kwa damu ya kondoo (Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?)

Umeoshwa kwa damu ya kondoo (Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?)

(Refrain)

Atakapokuja bwana arusi (When the Bridegroom cometh)
Uwe safi kwa damu ya kondoo (Will you be washed in the blood of the Lamb?)
Yafae kwenda mbinguni mavazi (Will your soul be ready for the mansions bright,)
Yafuliwe kwa damu ya kondoo (And be washed in the blood of the Lamb?)

(Refrain)

Yatupwe yaliyo na takataka (Lay aside the garments that are stained with sin)
Na uoshwe kwa damu ya kondoo (And be washed in the blood of the Lamb)
Huo ni kijito chatiririka (There’s a fountain flowing for the soul unclean)
Na uoshwe kwa damu ya kondoo (Oh, be washed in the blood of the Lamb)

Wabethelwa ngenxa yami (You were crucified because of me)

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)

Oh Haleluya useyingoma yam’ (Oh Hallelujah is still my song)
Yoku, yokudumisa (Of praise to You)

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!)

(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!)
