(Sing in Kiswahili – A Hymn)

Ikiwa wananiuliza (If they ask me )
Msingi wa uzima (About the foundation of life)
Je, twahitaji kuongeza (Do we need to add)
Kwa kazi yake Yesu? (To the work of Jesus?) (Repeat)

Kwa uhodari nitajibu (I will boldly answer)
“Msingi wangu ni wa nguvu (“My foundation is strong)
Ni damu yake Yesu Kristo (It is the blood of Jesus)
Inanitosha sana” (It is enough for me)
Ni damu yake Yesu Kristo (It is the blood of Jesus)
Inanitosha sana” (It is enough for me”) (Repeat)

U mwamba wa zamani sana (You are an ancient Rock)
Daima utadumu (Will be there forever)
Na hata siku nitakufa (And even when I die)
Nitautegemea (I will depend on it) (Repeat)

Nitakapoondoka huku (When I leave here)
Nitamsifu mwana kondoo (I will praise the lamb)
Na damu ya Mwokozi wangu (And the blood of my savior)
Funguo la mbinguni (The key to heaven) (Repeat)

Kwa uhodari nitajibu (I will boldly answer)
“Msingi wangu ni wa nguvu (“My foundation is strong)
Ni damu yake Yesu Kristo (It is the blood of Jesus)
Inanitosha sana” (It is enough for me)
Ni damu yake Yesu Kristo (It is the blood of Jesus)
Inanitosha sana” (It is enough for me”)

Nitakapoondoka huku (When I leave here)
Nitamsifu mwana kondoo (I will praise the lamb)
Na damu ya Mwokozi wangu (And the blood of my savior)
Funguo la mbinguni (The key to heaven)

Na damu ya Mwokozi wangu (And the blood of my savior)
Funguo la mbinguni (The key to heaven)

(Languages: Kinyarwanda, Kirundi, English, Kiswahili)

Burya wari uhari (You were there), when I was wondering
Lost and alone till your right time
I was nobody, before you counted me in
When I needed you the most, nimekuona (I have seen You)
Maisha yangu ni testimony (My life is a testimony)
Kubwira abantu ko wantunze inkoni (Telling people you gave me a chance)
Ntabwo bijya bintera isoni (I am not embarrassed)
Nasema asante (I say thank you)
For all the battles you fought for me
For every broken piece that you fixed
Ndumva umutima wange uganjwe n’amashimwe (My heart overflows with praise)

Pre-Refrain:
Narwanaga intambara zikomeye (I fought hard battles)
Nibwiraga ko nge ubwange nzishoboye (That I thought I could fight by myself)
Ndatsindwa cyane nsanga ari wowe nkeneye (I failed so hard, and find that it is You I need)
None dore uko unyitaho (And look at how you talk care of me)

Refrain:
Daddy God, Daddy God
I thank you for Your affection
All along, you’ve been so, so close in every situation
Daddy God, Daddy God
You dey move in every season
All along, you’ve been so, so close in every situation
No hesitation, nina (I have) protection
Ntabwoba bw’ejo Baba God uri maso (I’m not afraid of tomorrow, Father God You are awake)

When I couldn’t see the way, You made it clear
Baba Mungu (Father God) you took away all my fears
You told me “My child, I dey always here”
Ibyo ndabyumva ngatuza, ngateta nk’umwana uri kwa Papa (I hear this and calm down like a child at His father’s house)
Kubwira amahanga yose ibyo wankoreye (I will tell all the nations what You have done for me)
Ndumva aribyo bya mbere bindyoheye (I feel like this is the first time I’ve tasted it)
Of course, I don’t walk alone, ’cause you lead me on
You never leave your own, you always make me shout “Hallelujah!”

(Pre-Refrain + Refrain)

(Sung in Swahili and some Zulu)

Mwokozi wangu, nakuhitaji zaidi (My savior, I greatly need You)
Na Mwoyo wangu, unalia uwepo wako (And my heart, cries for your presence)
Nimejaribu on my own, lakini siwezi (I have tried on my own, and cannot do it)
Nakutegemea, usiniache kamwe (I rely upon you, never abandon me)

Nikiwa bado napumua (While there is still breath in me)
Jina lako ndilo nitajivunia (It is Your Name that I will boast upon)
Tena sitaki kitu cha kunikataza (Nor will I accept what will prevent me)
Kuwa chombo chako (From being Your vesssel)

Sauti yako ikaniita (Your voice called me)
Vingine vyote mimi kakataa (And I abandoned all else)
Nifiche ndani ya mabawa yako (Hide me in your feathers)
Nifike mwisho wa safari (Until the end of my journey)

Najua kwamba mimi ni wako (I know that I am Yours)
Unanipenda tena Sana (You love me greatly)
Nuru yako imenitoa gizani (Your light has brought me from darkness)
Sitaogopa kamwe (I will not be afraid) (Repeat)

Refrain:
Nitawale sasa, na hata milele Bwana (Rule over me now and into forever, Lord)
Overpower all of me, the way you truly desire
Natamani kuongozwa (I desire to be led)
Na Mkono wako Wenye nguvu (By Your mighty hand)
Breath the Fresh Air into my heart
Amen! Amen! Amen!
Yebo yebo Jesu, Yebo yebo Jesu (Yes yes, Jesus) — In Zulu
Yebo Yebo, ngidinga wena! (Yes yes , I need You)
Yebo yebo Jesu, Yebo yebo Jesu (Yes yes, Jesus)
Yebo yebo, ngidinga wena! (Yes yes , I need You)

Ee Mungu nitumikishe (Oh father use me)
Katika faida za mbingu (To the benefit of the heavens)
Nisimamie vizuri (To be a good steward)
Ufalme wako ndani ya ulimwengu (Your kingdom on earth)

Nijaze nguvu nipambane (Fill me with the strength to battle)
Udhaifu wangu uondoe (Remove my weaknesses)
Nidharau mishale ya machungu (For me to despise the arrows of bitterness)
Adui anaonipiga (And enemies who oppose me)

Hawa wanataja magari (While they trust chariots)
Wengine wanataja mafarasi (And the others trust horses)
Bali sisi tunalitaja (But we declare)
Hilo jina la Bwana (The Name of the Lord) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Najua kwamba mimi ni wako (I know that I am Yours)
Unanipenda tena Sana (You love me greatly)
Nuru yako imenitoa gizani (Your light has brought me from darkness)
Sitaogopa kamwe (I will not be afraid) (Repeat)

Repeat: Sitaogopa kamwe (I will not be afraid)
Bonde la mauti (The valley of death)
Kwenye shimo la simba (The lion’s den)
Katika giza tupu (The pure darkness)
Ndani ya bahari kuu (The deep sea)

(Refrain)

Emmanuel, You are my Lord
Mercy grace follow me
You loved me before I even knew You (that’s how good Your love is)
I run away from You, but You never would (that’s how good Your love is)
You fill me with Your Spirit
I’ll tell the whole world what You’ve done for me

Pre-Refrain:
I believe with all my heart, Lord
‘Cause everything You say is true
I can’t live without You one more day
I give it all, I give it all, to You

Refrain:
I was losing my way, You never turned away
How could You call me friend, after all I’ve done?
I searched all over (all over)
I’ve been all over (all over)
There was nobody, then Jesus called my name
And He blessed me, and He blessed me

And He blessed me, He pulled me closer
And He blessed me, He opened my eyes

I’m gonna Love like You taught me, I’ll follow Your words
I want to put my heart out to You
When I wake up in the morning
I’ll lift my hands in a sky
I say thank you Papa God, I love you Lord

(Pre-Refrain + Refrain)

He pulled me closer, And He blessed me,
He opened my eyes, And He blessed me,
Oh how he loves, and He blessed me
Abundantly, and He blessed me
He is number one, and He blessed me

Ndashima uwo mwami wabantu (I praise that king of men)
Ikuzo ribe iryawe mwami (Glory be to you, King)
Icyubahiro cyibe icyawe (Honor be unto You)
Ni wowe ubikwiye (You are worthy)

Uwo nkunze ntamuzi (You don’t know whom I love)
Uwo mwami w’ishyamba ryera (He who rules over the sacred forest (?))
My Lord, and my God eh

Nkimara kumeny’iby’umwami Yesu (After knowing more about the. King)
Numvaga nanijwe n’ibyaha byanjye (I felt overwhelmed by my sins)
Imitwaro induhij’umutima wanjye (Burdens weighed on my heart)
Nibazaga iherezo ry’inzira zanjye (In wondering the end of my ways)
Ntangira kuzinukwa, ibyo nakundaga (I began to despise what I loved)
‘by’ibinezeza by’isi (All the worldly pleasures)
Ntangira kubaha, ibyo nateshaga agaciro (I started to respect, what I despised)

Refrain:
Yanyiyeretse mu gicuku cy’ijoro (He appeared to me in the middle of the night)
Mbeg’umugabo mwiza cyane! (What a wonderful man!)
Eh, uyu Yesu, uyu Yesu, uyu Yesu (Yes, this Jesus, this Jesus, this Jesus)
Ntawusa nawe, nigeze mbona (I’ve never seen anyone like him)
Ati “Ngwino mwana wanjye nakunze (He said: “Come my beloved child)
Nakumenye kera utarab’ urusoro (I knew you long before you were born)
Uzahanurira amahanga menshi (You will prophesy to many nations)
Nzakuzuz’umwuka wanjye (I will fill you with my spirit)
Genda! Wamamaze iyi nkuru (Go! Spread this story)
Mu mahanga yose bayimenye (All nations have to know)
Genda! Wamamaze iyi nkuru (Go! Spread this story)
Mu mahanga yose bayimenye “ (All nations have to know”)

Ntangira kumv’izindi mbaraga (I began to feel another power)
Zirush’amaboko iza mbere (Stronger than before)
Mpinduka umunyantegenke (I became a coward)
Imbere y’ibyanyitaga intwali (In front of those who called me a hero)
Ibyo nagenderagamo mbere (What I used to do before)
Mbibona nk’ibibambwe (Seeing them as crucified)
Nabyo kandi bimbona nk’ubambwe (And they seeing me like that too)
Ubuzima bwanjye nabweguriye umwami (I have now dedicated my life to the King)
Umutima wanjye wararuhutse (My heart is relieved)

(Refrain)

Genda, wamamaze iyi nkuru (Go spread this story)
Mu mahanga yose bayimenye “ (All nations have to know”)
