(Sung in Kiswahili)

Nilijenga maisha juu ya mchanga (I built my life on sand)
Nilipojaribu kwa akili zangu (When I tried with my own understanding)
Upepo ulipo vuma, msingi katikisika (When the wind blew, the foundation was shaken)
Ndipo nimetambua (I have now realized)
Nahitaji msingi wa kweli (I need a true foundation) (Repeat)

Pre-Refrain:
Nimeona nguvu zangu hazitashi (My strength is not enough)
Nimeona njia zangu hazifiki, Yesu (My ways are insufficient, Jesus)
(Wewe pekee) Wewe ni mwamba, usiotingika((You alone) You are the solid rock)
(Wewe pekee) Wewe ni mwamba, usiotingika((You alone) You are the solid rock)

Refrain:
Msingi wangu ni Yesu, mwamba usiotingika (My foundation is Jesus, the Solid Rock)
Nitasimama juu yako, haijalishi dhoruba (I will stand on You, no matter the storm)
Msingi wangu ni Yesu,tumaini la milele (My foundation is Jesus, the hope of eternity)
Nitaishi, nitasonga kwa sababu (I will live, I will move forward because)
Wewe waaminika (You are faithful)

Nilipoptia moto na majaribu (When I went through fire and trials)
Sauti yako ilinituliza (Your voice calmed me)
Nilipoanguka, umeniinua (When I fell, You lifted me up)
Upendo wako hautaniacha (Your love will not leave me)

(Pre-Refrain)

Msingi wangu ni Yesu, mwamba usiotingika (My foundation is Jesus, the Solid Rock)
Nitasimama juu yako, haijalishi dhoruba (I will stand on You, no matter the storm)
Msingi wangu ni Yesu, mwamba usiotingika (My foundation is Jesus, the Solid Rock)
Nitasimama juu yako, haijalishi dhoruba (I will stand on You, no matter the storm)
Msingi wangu ni Yesu,tumaini la milele (My foundation is Jesus, the hope of eternity)
Nitaishi, nitasonga kwa sababu (I will live, I will move forward because)
Wewe waaminika (You are faithful) (Repeat)

Msingi wangu ni Yesu,tumaini la milele (My foundation is Jesus, the hope of eternity)
Nitaishi, nitasonga kwa sababu (I will live, I will move forward because)
Wewe waaminika (You are faithful) (Repeat)

Rain Rwanda, Swahili Gospel Lyrics , 1 Comment


(Sung in Kiswahili)

Inuka, juu kuliko makovu yako (Arise above your scars)
Inuka, kwenye majivu (Arise from the ashes)
kwa sababu huu ni mdaa wako (For this is your season)
Mungu atatimiza ahadi zote zako (God will fulfill all His promises to You)
Utakumbatia mabadiliko mapya (He will embrace you with new life)
Minyororo inakatika, kuta zinaanguka (The chains are broken, the walls fall)
When Jesus says yes

Alikuumba kwa udongo (He formed you from clay)
Akamwanga damu yake kwa ajili yako (He spilled His blood for your sake)
Yeye hasemi uongo (He does not life)
Ni mwamifu every time (He is faithful every time) (Repeat)

Bridge:
Alifungua njia kati ya bahari (He made a way across the sea)
Na mapito kati ya maji yenye nguvu nyingi (And made paths across mighty waters)
Msiyakumbuke mambo ya zamani (Do not dwell on past things)
Alitenda jambo jipya, tazama! (Behold! He has done a new thing) (Repeat)

Refrain:
Leo na Kesho anakujaza furaha (Today and tomorrow He fills you with joy)
Anaweka maneno, katika vitendo Jarah (He puts words in actions, Jarah)
Chochote wanachopanga, it doesn’t really matter, usisite (Whatever they plan, don’t matter, do not hesitate)
Mwaminiye kwanza, baraka zitafuata, usisite (Trust in Him first, the blessings will follow, do not hesitate)
Anakujua anakukumbuka, usisite (He knows you, He remembers you, do not delay)
Anakutunza, anakufahamu, usisite, usisite (He keeps you, He knows you, do not delay)

Kama vile mbingu zilivyo juu kuliko dunia (Just as the heavens are above the earth)
Hivyo ndivyo asiyelinganishwa na mwanadamu (That is how his is not separated from us)
Mungu ni Bwana wa yasiyowezekana (God is the Lord the impossible)
Kesi yako sio mkuu (Your case is not too big for Him)
Mgongo wake ni mwema na uko daima kukubeba (His back is better the world to carry you)
Nyosha mikono yako, naye atakushika (Stretch your hands, and He will carry you)
Yeye ni mzazi mwenye rehema (For He is a Father of mercies)
Mkimbilie atakupokea (Run to Him, and he will embrace you)
Ni yeye tu anayeweza (It is only Him who is able)
Kuponya majeraha yako (To heal your woulds)

Yeye kamwe hashindwi (He never fails)
Tuna ushuhuda mwingi (We have many testimonies)
Our Father is the King, never be-never be afraid (Repeat)

(Bridge)

(Refrain)

Mipango yake kwako ni njema
Hawezi kukuacha yatima
He’s always there for you, usisite (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Yesu ni wangu (Jesus is mine)
Wa uzima wa milele  (He is alive and He’s eternal) (Repeat)

(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)
