(Sung in Swahili)

Usinione nimechakaa unitilie dharau (Don’t look at my tatters and despise me)
Mimi binadamu, umesahau? (I am also human, have you forgotten?)

Unaishi kwa dhamani, (You live in riches)
Mimi naishi kwa imani (I live on faith)
Mbele zako mimi sina haki, (Before you I have no rights)
Mbele zake mimi mwenye hadhi (But before Him, I am valuable)
Fahamu kuwa Mola ndiye aliniumba mimi na wewe (Remember God is the creator of all)

Refrain:
Mimi mwanake, usiku nitalala (I am His son, I will sleep in peace)
Mbele zake maulana, sote tuko sawa (For before the Lord, we are all equal)

Ulinipuuza mie, eti sifai kuwa nawe (You wrote me off as useless)
Uliniona mie, eti hati ya kula nawe (I was not worthy to eat with you)
Sahani moja tupotiliwa chakula (From one plate when we were served)
Nyumba moja tulipofaa kuishi pamoja (In one house as we were meant)

(Refrain)

Wema wake taji la upendo juu yangu (His love and mercy are my crowns (?))
Ndani yake nilikuwa na uwoga wote uwe kimya (Before Him, all my fears are silent)

(Refrain)

(Sung in Swahili)

Naomba uniweke kwako ndani (I pray that you keep me in You)
Niwe imara kama milima Zayuni (That I may be strong like Mount Zion)
Hauta anguka kukiwa na mawimbi (That will Neither be fallen by storms)
Wala kutikiswa kukiwa na adui (Nor be shaken by enemies)
Kila kitu ni wewe (Everything is you)

Refrain:
Kila kitu changu ni wewe (Everything that is mine, is yours)
Ninaye mwimbia, ni wewe (The one I praise, is you)
Maishani mwangu, nimeamua ni wewe (In all my life, I have decided that It’s you)

Mi nimeshangazwa na matendo yako Baba (I’m amazed by your works Father)
Ulivyonichukua na kunitunza kama wako (The way you took me and made me yours)
Sa mi ni wako, Kwangu kwako (Now I am yours, what is mine is yours)
Ukanipenda, ukaniita mwana wako (You loved me, and called me your son/child)

(Refrain)

Juu, chini, kushoto kulia (Up or down, left or right)
Sijamwona kama wewe (I have not seen anyone like you)
Sa mi ni wako, Kwangu kwako (Now I am yours, what is mine is yours)
Ukanipenda, ukaniita mwana wako (You loved me, and called me your son/child)

(Refrain)

Rain Kenya, Swahili Gospel Lyrics , , Leave a comment


(Sung in Swahili)

Refrain:
Asante kwa muziki, asante Mungu kwa ngoma (Thank you, Thank you God for music)
Hebu wewe ona vile watu wako wanapona (Look at how Your people sing & are healed)
Muziki ni dawa, ukisikiza utakuwa sawa (Music heals, listen to it and be eased)
Muziki ni dawa, ndio maana mimi naimba (Music heals, and that is why I sing)

Shida zinanionea, maisha ni kuvumilia (My life is full of troubles, I try to persevere)
Mimi nang’angana ili (…) I’m working hard (I work hard that…)
Mwili waanza kuuma kichwa kinaniuma (My body starts to ache, I have a headache)
Mgongo unauma, madawa nanywa siponi (My back aches, No medicine works)
Nasikia muziki kwa redio, mwili wangu unapoa (I listen to radio music, my body eases)
Swali munijibu: huu muziki una nini? (Answer me this: What does music have?)

(Refrain)

Nilikuwa nimepewa stori ya mfalme mmoja (I was told a story about a king)
Kwa jina aliitwa Sauli, alipagawa mwili (His name was Saul, and he was possessed)
Kulikuwa na kijana mmoja, kwa jina Daudi (There was a young man called David)
Alikuwa na talanta, talanta kama mimi (He had a talent, a talent similar to mine)
Tofauti yangu mimi na yeye, Ye alicheza zeze (The difference was he played the harp)
Mfalme alipagawa, watu wakashtuka (People were afraid whenever the King was ill)
Madakitari waliitwa kutibu mfalme wakashindwa (Healers tried to heal him in vain)
Daudi alipocheza zeze, mfalme akapona (But when David played the harp, the king was eased)

(Refrain)

Nitasimama (I Will Stand) Lyrics by Alex Karani

Rain English Lyrics, Kenya, Swahili Gospel Lyrics , , , 2 Comments


(Languages: English, Swahili)

Sometimes in life, tumaini hufifia (hope fades)
Sometimes in life, huzuni kama maji mengi (sorrows like many waters)
And when you need some help, marafiki wakutoroka (Your friends flee you)
And when your strength is gone; hakuna wa kutegemea (There’s no one to depend on)
But I’ve got a word for you:

Shikilia (Hold on), through the darkness night
When faith is gone away, Waweza kusimama (You can stand)
If you just hold on through the rainy storm
When faith is growing thin, waweza kusimama (You can stand)
You can stand

You don’t even understand why they say Mungu akujali (that God cares for you)
The way you feel right now, you don’t even think you can pray
Zake zitakutosha (He is enough for you), This is the time to lift up your voice and say

Nitashikilia (I will hold on), through the darkness night
When faith is gone away, Nitasimama (I will stand)
If I can hold on through the rainy storm
When faith is growing thin, Nitasimama (I will stand) (Repeat)

I will stand x3 Nitasimama, I will stand.

Rain Kenya, Swahili Gospel Lyrics , , , 1 Comment


(Sung in Swahili)

Refrain:
Masikio ya Mungu yanasikia (God’s ears are attentive) x2
Oohh Masikio ya Mungu yanasikia (Oh God’s ears are attentive) (Repeat)

Kuna kitu unataka lakini bado hujapata (You have a need that has not been met)
Umeomba lakini unadhani Mungu hasikii (You’ve prayed, you thing God doesn’t hear)
Tangu uzaliwe, miguuni hujava kiatu (From birth, you’ve never worn shoes)
Sema neno, sema tu anasikia (Just say the word, He hears you)
Umelia sana, umechoka wewe mama (You’re exhausted by weeping you widow)
Tangu mumeo aage, wakweze wanakutesa
(Since your husband’s passing, your inlaws hound you)
Wanasema hufai, watoto wako ni machokoraa
(Saying you’re useless, your children only fit for the streets)
Masikio yake, masikio (His ears, He hears)

(Refrain)

Siasa, siasa zinafanya unakonda (Gossip affects your health)
Rafiki, maneno za watu zinafanya mnakosana (You lose your friends because of words)
Eti alisema this, alisema that, hapana! (That He said this, she said that)
Wacha mwenyezi yeye atalipia (Leave it to the Almighty to avenge you)
Na kama ni masomo, umesoma shule zote umealiza (You’ve completed your studies)
Katafuta kazi miaka saba, umekosa (For 7 years you’ve looked for work, nothing)
Usife moyo, usife moyo (Don’t lose heart, don’t lose heart)
Masikio yake, masikio (His ears, He hears)

(Refrain)

Ulele ulele ulele x3
Tangu asubuhi, hadi asubuhi, halali hasinzii yeye anasikia
(From dawn to dawn, he does not sleep nor slumber)
Usilie kwa sababu wewe umeitwa tasa (Do not cry for being called barren)
Huyo mtoto wamtamani sasa unaweza pata
(The child you desire, you will be blessed)
Mwite Mola, mwite Daddy (Call to God, call your Father)
Masikio yake, masikio (His ears, He hears)
