(Sung in Kinyarwanda)

Nubw’ inzira yari ndende, kandi ibimpiga na byo ar’ uruhuri
(Even though the journey was long, and what I faced was overwhelming)
Mu butayu kure y’amasoko (In the wilderness, far from the springs)
Dusaya mu mirimo n’uburetwa (We toiled in labor and hardship)
Iyo mu mukidaturwa (There, in the place where we are not settled)
Nta jwi ryiza numva (I heard no pleasant voice)
Kure y’ibyo ukunda (Far from what You love)
Ndangariy’ ubusa (I wandered in vain)
Nta muhuza, wange n’agakiza (There was no mediator between me and salvation)
Nsikamiwe n’icyaha (I was burdened by sin)
Oh, gutabarwa kwange byari inzozi (My deliverance was only a dream)

Oya nta gitero, na kimwe kizangabwaho (No attack shall be launched against me)
Oya nta gitero, na kimwe kizangeraho (Not a single attack shall reach me)
Ntari kumwe n’umwami wange (I am not alone, my King is with me) (Repeat)

Refrain:
Ya mitwaro urayimuye (You have removed those burdens)
Yesu sinz’ uko uhinduy’ ibihe (Jesus, I don’t know how You change the seasons)
Ubikoz’ uko wabimbwiye (You did it just as You promised)
None umutim’ urahembutse (My heart is comforted) (Repeat)

Amen, Hallelujah! (Amen)
Amen, Hallelujah! (Amen)
Amen, Hallelujah! Ukomeje kuntungura (You continue to amaze me) (Repeat)

Urongeye uramvuguruye (You spoke and restored me)
Nge wari warahejwe ndinjiye (I, who had been rejected, have entered)
Ubw’ intambwe zange, zikomejwe nawe (Now my steps are strengthened by You)
Naho nagwa sinzarambarara (Even if I fall, I will not remain down)
Ubukeba bunkingira (The hedge surrounds and protects me)
Icyanzu uncira (You make a way for me)
Imvura’ umvubira (You pour rain upon me)
Ni ibihamya ko ntazarumba (It is evidence that I will not lack)

Unyugamisha ahatavirwa (You shelter me in a place of refuge)
Uriyumvira ntubwirwa (You understand without being told)
Ni naw’ ugena iminsi yange (You are the One who determines my days)
Unyugamish’ ahatavirwa (You shelter me in a place of refuge)
Uriyumvira ntubwirwa (You understand without being told)
Ni naw’ ugena iminsi yange (You are the One who determines my days)

Oya nta gitero, na kimwe kizangabwaho (No attack shall be launched against me)
Oya nta gitero, na kimwe kizangeraho (No attack shall reach me)
Ntari kumwe n’umwami wange (Without my King) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Amen, Hallelujah! (Amen)
Amen, Hallelujah! (Amen)
Amen, Hallelujah! Ukomeje kuntungura (You continue to amaze me) (Repeat)

Wowe intumwa zavuze (You are the One the apostles spoke about)
Abahanuzi banditse (The One the prophets wrote about)
Uwacimbuye ni we ntabaza (The One who began it, is the One who will complete it) (Repeat)

(Refrain)
Amen, Hallelujah! (Amen)
Amen, Hallelujah! (Amen)
Amen, Hallelujah! Ukomeje kuntungura (You continue to amaze me) (Repeat)
