(Sung in Kinyarwanda)

Uwiteka araturengeye (The Lord is our help)
Akuyeho ibirego by’Ibinyoma (He has removed false accusations against us)
Ukuboko kwe kuri, ku barembejwe (His hands are on those who are targeted)
N’imyambi y’Umubisha (By the Devil’s arrows)
Uhora adutoteza (Those who harass us)
Ngo tutazabona gakondo (So that we do not receive the inheritance)
Ashaka ko tuvuza Induru (Those who wish for us to wail)
Aho kuzavuz’ Impundu (Rather than rejoice)
Ariko siko, bizaba (But it shall not end there)
Ku Biringiye Uwiteka (For those who trust in the Lord)

Pre-Refrain
Imiyaga iraza ikambu-raho ijambo (The winds came, and did not destroy me)
No mu butayu sinjya-nicwa n’umwuma  (Even in the desert, I shall not die of thirsty) (Repeat)

Refrain:
Uwambereye umutaka, agahuma amas’ ibimpiga
(The one who covers me, and blinded my enemies)
Ineza ye yarampamagaye, inkiz’ igihunga
(His Mercy called me, and saved me from my fears)
Ineza ye yarampamagaye, imbwira ko Nzagerayo
(His Mercy called me, told me I shall get there)
Ineza ye yarampamagaye, imbwira ko Nzagerayo
(His Mercy called me, and told me I shall get there)

Ndi muhungiro, bukomeye (I am in a great refuge)
Umwanz’ atabasha, kuvogera (That the enemy cannot attack)
Amanyw’ ansimburiye, ya majoro (Days have replaced those nights for me)
Erega natakambiye, Umwami wanjye (I cried out, to my Lord)
Antabara, ntawe agishije nama (He heard and rescued me without consulting others)

Mpora ndirimba, ko yambereye Iriba ry’Umugisha (I sing, that He has become a Well of Blessings to me)
Naciye ukubiri, n’ibinyeganyereza ukwizera (I am separated from the shaking faith) (Repeat)

(Pre-Refrain + Refrain)

Bridge:
Uwo twakurikiye, ntawe yahemukiye (The one who followed betrayed no one)
Yadutegeye Amaboko na Yeriko arazihirika (He welcomed us, and broke the walls of Jericho) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Wongeye guca akanzu (You have made a way again)
Ngo tugushime tuguhimbaze (For us to praise and worship You)

Iyo tunaniwe, uduha kumanzi (When we thirst, You give us water)
Tugasindagira, twegera aho uri (Then we walk towards where You are)

Umunot’ umwe, imbere yawe (One minute in your presence)
Twawugereranya, imyaka myishi abami (Cannot be compared to many years elsewhere)

Man’ uri mwiza, ibihe ni bihe! (God you are Good, from generation to generation!) x2

(Languages: Kinyarwanda, English)

Nubwo muri iyi Isi, Ibibazo ari byinshi  (Though the world is full of problems)
Nifuza kubaho, mfite amahoro (I desire to live in peace)
But the devil doesn’t leave me alone, ever
The devil doesn’t leave me alone, oh never
Akora uko ashoboye kwose (He tries his best to take away my blessings)
To take away my blessings

Refrain:

Nzahagarara kumunara wanjye (I will stand at the watchtower)
Ntegereze icyo wambwiye (And await for what You promised me)
Nzahagarara kumunara wanjye (I will stand at the watchtower)
Ntegereze icyo wambwiye (And await for what You promised me)
Ngutegereze (I will wait for You)
Nzagutegereza Mana (God, I will wait for You)
I will wait for You, I will wait for You, I will wait for You
Ngutegereze (I will wait for You)  (Repeat)

Namenye ko niyo ucecetse (I have come to know that even when You are silent)
Bitavuze ko wandetse (It doesn’t mean that You’ve forsaken me)
Ntakizambuza gutabarwa (Nothing will prevent my rescue)
Ntakizakubuza guseruka (Nothing will stop You from my rescue)
I will wait for You, I will wait for You, I will wait for You
Ngutegereze (I will wait for You)

(Refrain)

(Sung in Kinyarwanda)

Isezerano ry’umwana w’umuntu (A promise of a man)
Rirangirana n’iminsi ya muntu (Only lasts for the length of their life)
Uwiteka iyo asezeranye (But when the Lord promises)
Rihoraho kuko ahoraho! (It remains forever for)

Yasezeranye ko atazampana (He promises never to forsake me)
Yarabwiye ati “ndakubyaye uri uwanjye” (He said to me “My child you’re forever mine”)
Ampa mwuka wera ngo antunganye (He gave me His Spirit to cleanse me)
Mfite ibimenyetso byibo yakoze (I have proof of what He’s done for me)

Yewe rupfu we, urubaori rwawe ruri he? (O death, where is your victory?)
Nzahoraho kuko ahoraho (I will  live forever, for He remains forever)

Yasezeranye ko atazampana (He promises never to forsake me)
Yarabwiye ati “ndakubyaye uri uwanjye” (He said to me “My child you’re forever mine”)
Ampa mwuka wera ngo antunganye (He gave me His Spirit to cleanse me)
Mfite ibimenyetso byibo yakoze (I have proof of what He’s done for me)

Yewe rupfu we, urubaori rwawe ruri he? (O death, where is your victory?)
Nzahoraho kuko ahoraho (I will  live forever, for He remains forever) (Repeat)

Refrain:
Hahirwa ufite isezerano (Blessed is the one)
Oh, ry’imana ihoraho (With the promise from the Lord)
Hahirwa uwatorewe ubukwe (Blessed is the one who is the chosen)
Bwumwana w’inama (To be in the wedding of the Lamb) (Repeat)

Mana unesheshe imitima yacu (God You have made our hearts glad)
Utwibutse imirimo myiza wakoze (We remember all your good deeds)
Umenezero dufite none, Mwami (The  joy we now have, Lord)
Udukumbuje uwijuru (Makes long for heaven’s) (Repeat)
