Leave a comment


(Sung in Swahili)

Adui aliomba, anisiagasiage (The enemy prayed to crush me)
Anisiagasiage, kama ngano (To grind me like wheat)
Lakini Yesu aliomba, mimi nisimame (But Jesus asked me to stand)
Mimi nisimame kwa wema weke (Me to stand on His Goodness)
Adui aliitisha, anisiagasiage (The enemy asked to grind me)
Tena anipepete, kama ngano (And then winnow me like wheat)
Lakini Yesu akasimama, akaomba (But Jesus stood, and pleaded on my behalf)
Mimi nisimame kwa wema wake (That I may stand on his Goodness)
Ndio leo nimesimamama (That is is why today I stand)

Refrain:
Nimesimama! Kwa rehema na neema yake (I am still standing! By His Mercy and Grace)
Ile gharama, ya uhai wangu/dhambi zangu (That ransom on my life/ on my sins)
Yesu amelipa yote (Jesus has paid it all)
Mimi sitokufa, sitozimia (I will not die, I will not faint)
Nitasimama kwa wema wake (I will stand upon His Goodness)
Mimi sitokufa, sitozimia (I will not die, I will not faint)
Nitasimama kwa wema wake (I will stand upon His Goodness)

Nilipokaribia, kitini cha enzi (When I came close to the throne)
Shetani alisema “ni mchafu” (Satan said “But she is dirty”)
Yesu akasimama, akasema “ona (Jesus stood, and said “Behold)
Nimelipa gharama yake” (I have paid her ransom”)
Nilipokaribia, kitini cha enzi (When I came close to the throne)
Shetani alisema “huyu hafai” (Satan accused “this one is not worthy”)
Yesu akasimama, akasema “Baba ona (Jesus stood, and said “Father see)
Nimelipa gharama yake” (I have already paid her ransom”)

(Refrain)

Adui alinizika, akasema nimeisha (The enemy buried me, saying I was done for)
Sitoonekana tena kamwe (And will never be seen again)
Yesu alipofika, akaniita (When Jesus arrived, He called me)
Akanipa uhai wake (He gave me His Life)
Adui alinizika, akatangaza nimekufa (The enemy buried me, and announced my death)
Sitoonekana tena kamwe (I will never be seen again)
Yesu alipofika,akasema “toka!” (When Jesus arrived, he said “Be gone!”)
Akanipa uhai wake (And gave me His life)

(Refrain)

Mimi sitokufa, sitozimia (I will not die, I will not faint)
Nitasimama kwa wema wake (I will stand upon His Goodness)
Mimi sitokufa, sitozimia (I will not die, I will not faint)
Nitasimama kwa wema wake (I will stand upon His Goodness) (Repeat)

Moyo (My Soul) Lyrics by Kelsy Kerubo

Leave a comment


(Sung in Swahili)

Moyo, mbona unaumia? Moyo, ukikosa unavyotaka? x2
(Why do you hurt my soul? Whenever you lack what you want?)
Moyo wangu umebeba mengi, mbona unajitesa?
(You have carried many things my heart, why do you worry yourself?)
Moyo wangu mengine siwezi, mbona unanitesa?
(I cannot do some things my soul, why do you make me suffer?)
Mara maisha, mara mapenzi, moyo unajitesa
(Now it is about life, now it is about love, you torture yourself my soul)
Maisha hayo mimi siyawezi, ni Mungu ataniwezesha
(I am unable to live that life, it is God who will enable me)

Kila wakati nakupambania, nipate raha (Every time I struggle for you, to get joy)
Na mimi, nipate furaha (For me, to get joy)
Najua unahisia, unasikia moyo, moyo! (I know you feel me, and you hear me my soul)

Refrain:
Moyo, tulia moyo (Be still, my soul)
Roho, utulize moyo (Holy Spirit, calm my soul) (Repeat)

Moyo kuwa na subira, nami niwe salama (Be patient my soul, that I might also be safe)
Kwani una tamaa, sio uvumilivu (For you have desires and not patience)
Nesome emuwe Yesu, wekume mutima wange (Wait upon Jesus my heart)
Kwagala mutima wange (Be patient my heart)

Moyo wangu umebeba mengi, mbona unajitesa?
(You have carried many things my heart, why do you worry yourself?)
Moyo wangu mengine siwezi, mbona unanitesa?
(I cannot do some things my soul, why do you make me suffer?)
Mara maisha, mara mapenzi, moyo unajitesa
(Now it is about life, now it is about love, you torture yourself my soul)
Maisha hayo mimi siyawezi, ni Mungu ataniwezesha
(I am unable to live that life, it is God who will enable me)

(Refrain)

(Sung in Swahili)

Ni nani asimame mbele zako, nani akupinge? x2
(Who can stand before you, who can stand against you)
Watetemesha, mimima hata ziwa, nani akupinge? x2
(You make the mountains and oceans quake, who can stand against You?) (Repeat)

Refrain:
Maana wewe ni Mkuu (For You are Great)
Mwenye enzi, twakuabudu (Sovereign God, we worship You) (Repeat)

Hakuna jina kuu kuliko jina la Yesu (There is no other name greater than Jesus)
Yeye anaweza, yeye anaeweza mambo yote (He is able to all)
Ni nini kinamshinda? Hakuna kitu kimshindacho (Who can defeat Him? Nothing is impossible to Him)
We trust you God

Unayeponya, magonjwa yasiyo na tiba, nani akupinge? x2
(The healer of uncurable disease, who can stand against You?)
Wawafariji, yatima na wajane, nani akupinge? x2
(The comforter of the orphans and widows, who can stand against You?)

(Refrain)
