English Lyrics, Nigeria Delay Lyrics, Theophilus Sunday, Your Pattern May Delay Me Leave a comment
Oh Potter, here is Your clay
Oh Master, behold Your servant (Repeat)
Refrain:
Your pattern may delay me
That the world will say I’m failing
I choose this delay
So I will look like You
Your process may slay me
That the world will say I’m wasting
I choose to be slain
So I will rise as You (Repeat)
Oh, even if You slay me
Or seem to delay me
All I know is that: this is You
And no matter what
I will follow You/ Help me follow You (Repeat)

English Lyrics, Swahili Gospel Lyrics, Tanzania Dr Ipyana, Nimeomba sana kwa siri, Nimerudi Kushukuru, Siwezi kusimulia, Umekua Nami Lyrics Leave a comment
(Languages: Kiswahili, English)
Nimeomba sana kwa siri (I prayed a lot in secret)
Machozi mengi sirini (A lot of tears were shed in secret)
Leo umekuja hadharani (Today You have come in public)
Umenijibu kwa ujasiri (You have answered in courage)
Nililia sana sirini (I wept a lot in secret)
Nikiwa mi na wewe pekee yetu (When I was alone with You)
Leo umekuja hadharani (Today You have come in public)
Umenijibu kwa ujasiri (You have answered me in courage)
Pre-Refrain:
Siwezi kusimulia (I cannot describe)
This far You have brought me
This is all for Your Grace (Repeat)
Refrain:
Mungu wangu! Mungu wangu! (My God! My God!)
Nimerudi kushukuru, Mungu wangu (I have come back to give You thanks, my God) (Repeat)
Prayers we made in tears, you didn’t despise
Lord we’ve come in public to testify (Repeat)
(Pre-Refrain + Refrain)
Repeat: Refrain
Umeendelea kutukutanisha siku hadi siku (You have reconciled us day by day)
Umeendelea kujibu hili, na lile, na lile (You have continued to answer this and that and that)
Umeendelea kuachilia majina mapya (You have continued to give us new names)
Umeendelea kuachilia kimo na maarifa (You have continued to release stature and knowledge)
Umeendelea kupanua huduma yetu, Baba (Father, You have continued to expand our ministries)
Umeendelea kulinda watoto wetu, Mfalme (King, You have continued to protect our children)
Tulivyo safiri, tulisafiri salama (However we travelled, we traveled safely)
Tulivyo tembea hatukuanguka barabarani (How we walked, we did not fall by the wayside)
Nimerudi kushukuru (I have come back to thank You)
Pokea heshima na utukufu wote (Receive all the honor and glory)
Maana …?
Wala …?
Kwani unafikiri hii ni pumzi yangu, Bwana? (Do you think this breath is mine, Lord?)
Hata pumzi kwenye mapafu ni wewe Bana (Even the breadth in my lungs is from You)
Sikia ibaada yangu (Listen to my worship)
Umekuwa nami, umetembea nami
(You have been with me, You have walked with me)
Nimerudi kushukuru, Mungu wangu
(I have come back to give You thanks, my God) (Repeat)
– in Zulu
Ubunami, uhambe nami (You have been with me and walked with me)
Nkosi yami (My God) (Repeat)
You have been with me
You have walked with me
Nkosi yami (My God) (Repeat)
Mungu wangu! Mungu wangu! (My God! My God!)
Niko hapa kushukuru, Mungu wangu (I am here to give You thanks, my God) (Repeat)
Umekuwa nami, umetembea nami
(You have been with me, You have walked with me)
Niko hapa kushukuru, Mungu wangu
(I am here to give You thanks, my God) (Repeat)

There has never been; and will never be
One so beautiful like You
