Nashuka mbele zako, miguuni pako (I prostrate myself before You, at Your feet)

Sitaabudu miungu mingine (I will worship no other god)
Nakuabudu uliye hai(I only worship the Living one)

(Sung in Gikuyu – A Hymn)

Ũnyite na guoko, njikarage nawe
(Hold me safe in your hands, keep me safe by Your side)
Ndĩkuuĩire mũtĩ wakwa wa kwambĩrwo
(As I bear my own cross for crucifying my flesh)
Njikarage nawe, mathĩnainĩ mothe
(Keep me safe with You, through life’s storms)
Nĩgetha ũndeithie kũhotana
(So that I emerge victorious)

Refrain:
Mwathani nĩnjũĩ ndũkandiga
(Lord I know You never forsake me)
Na nĩngwenda kuona, riri wa Igũrũ
(And I desire to see, Your heavenly glory)
Ũhithe o harĩa, thũ ĩtangĩnyona
(Hide me safely from the enemy’s sight)
Ũngĩona oru ũhithe
(Keep me safe till the storm passes by)

Naniĩ nĩnjũĩ ndirĩ hinya Mwathani
(Lord I know that I do not have the strength to bear)
Wa gwĩtirĩrĩria, nditi cia Caitani
(The pressures of Satan’)
Na thuti cia mwĩrĩ, a wendo wa arata
(The cravings of the flesh, and love of friends)
Na mĩago ya thĩ ino ĩtarĩ a bata
(And worldly pleasures that lead to death)

(Refrain)

Ndarĩkia gũkinya, mũciĩ ũcio wa Igũrũ
(When I finally arrive, at my heavenly home)
Caitani ndagacoka gũũthĩnia rĩngĩ

Baba nĩakahĩmbĩria na moko merĩ
(My father will embrace me)
Na ahurũkie wendoinĩ wake
(And cause me to rest forever in his Love)

Moto unaoteketea (Fire that burns)
Wewe ndiwe tamaa ya moyo wangu (You are the desire of my heart)

Niende wapi, nikukwepe roho wa Mungu? (Where can I go to escape from the Holy Spirit?)
Kunishawishi moyo, kama wewe hautakoma (To convince my heart, that you will not stop)
Moyo wangu ni wako, uhai wangu pia wako (My heart is yours, my life is yours)
Moyo wangu ni wako, uhai wangu pia wako (My heart is yours, my life is yours)

Teketea, ndani yangu, teketea (teketea) (Burn within me, burn) (Repeat)

Repeat: Bridge
Raha yangu ni wewe, amani yangu ni wewe tu (My joy is you, my peace is you)

Kilicho ndani yangu Yesu, iwe ni wewe pekee yako (What is within me Jesus, be only you)

Roho wa Mungu, nibatize mimi (Spirit of God, baptize me)
Roho wa Mungu, unijaze tena (Spirit of God, fill me again)(Repeat)

When you rise, close your eyes again
Say thank you to the most high (asante)
He has seen you, through the night
And He’s blessed you with the morning light

Refrain:
Amekuonekania (He’s seen You), He’s faithful
Amekuonekania(He’s seen You), He’s merciful
Amekuonekania(He’s seen You), He’s wonderful
Oh Yes, oh yeah
Ongea Naye (talk to Him), oh yeah
Tembea naye (walk with Him) , oh yeah
Muimbie (sing His praises), oh yeah
He will not forsake you
Yuko na wewe (He is with You) x3
Leo, kesho, na kila siku (Today, tomorrow, and always)

When you are down, and alone
Seek Him out (mtafute) and he will find you
He will erase (futilia mbali) all your fears
And restore You to grace

(Refrain)

Bridge:
Akija kama leo, uko tayari kumlaki?
(If he returns today, are you ready to receive Him?)

Ongea Naye (talk to Him), oh yeah
Tembea naye (walk with Him) , oh yeah
Muimbie (sing His praises), oh yeah
He will not forsake you
Yuko na wewe (He is with You) x3
Leo, kesho, na kila siku (Today, tomorrow, and always)

(Sung in Swahili – A Hymn)

Mbeleni naendelea (I’m pressing on the upward way)
Ninazidi kutembea (New heights I’m gaining every day)
Mombi uyasikie (Still praying as I’m onward bound)
Ee Bwana unipandishe (Lord, plant my feet on higher ground)

Refrain:
Ee Bwana uniinue (Lord, lift me up and let me stand)
Kwa imani nisimame (By faith, on Heaven’s table land)
Nipande milima yote (A higher plane than I have found)
Ee Bwana unipandishe (Lord, plant my feet on higher ground)

(Refrain)

Sina tamaa ni nikae (My heart has no desire to stay)
Mahali pa shaka kamwe (Where doubts arise and fears dismay)
Hapo wengi wanakaa (Though some may dwell where those abound)
Kuendelea naomba (My prayer, my aim, is higher ground)

(Refrain)

Nataka nipandishwe juu (I want to scale the utmost height)
Zaidi ya yale mawingu (And catch a gleam of glory bright)
Ninaomba nifikishwe (But still I’ll pray till heaven I’ve found)
Ee Bwana unipandishe (Lord, lead me on to higher ground)

(Refrain)
