Ukwiye amashimwe Yesu (You deserve the praise, Jesus)
Imirimo yawe irantangaje (Your works are amazing)
Hari ibyo unkoreye ntarasenga (There so much you’ve done before I prayed)
Undema umutima mu rugendo (You have strengheend by heart on my journey)
Data ukwiye ishimwe (Father you deserve all the praise)
Iyo naniwe, aranduhura (When I’m weak he gives me strength)
Nsubiye inyuma arankiza (When I fall back, he saves me)
N’ibyishimo byanjye n’imbaraga zanjye (He is my happiness)
Ni igitare nubatseho (He is my strength)

Refrain:
Ndanyuzwe mu mutima wanjye (I am grateful in my heart)
Mfite indirimbo ibihumbi (I have thousands of songs)
Ntarindi jambo nshaka kuvuga (But have nothing more to say)
Usibye irigushima (Other than to praise You)
Uwiteka nje imbere yawe nciye bugufi (I humbly come before You, Lord)
Mfite byinshi byo kukubwira ariko reka mpitemo kimwe (I have much to tell You, but I choose one thing to say)
Si uko amarira yashize (Not because I cry no more)
Si uko ibibazo birangiye (Not because my problem are gone)
Ni umutima unyuzwe (But because of a grateful heart)
Uwiteka nje imbere yawe ongera unyumve ()
Wakire iyi ndirimbo kuko imvuye Ku mutima ()
Si uko amarira yashize (Not because I cry no more) Si uko ibibazo birangiye(Not because my problem are gone) Ni umutima unyuzwe (But because of a grateful heart)

Uwiteka nje imbere yawe nibutse byabihe (I come before You with past memories)
Ndumva nuzuye ishimwe n’amarira y’ibyishimo (I am full of praise and tears of joy as I remember)
Si uko hari icyo natanze (Not because I sacrificed anything)
Si uko nkiranuka bikwiriye (Not because I’m worthy and righteous)
Ni umitima unyuzwe (But because of a grateful heart)
Uwiteka nje imbere yawe ongera unyumve (When I come before You Lord, hear me)
Sinabona icyo ngutura gihwanye n’ibyo unkorera (I cannot repay you according to what you’ve done fore me)
Ng’uyu umutima uwakire (Here is my heart, take it)
Uwukoreshe icyo ushaka (Do unto it as You will)
Kuko umutima uranyuzwe (Because it is full of Thanksgiving)
Ngerageza gukora ibyiza (I always intend to do good)
Ibibi bikantanga imbere (But bad emerges)
Ngirir’ imbabazi (Grant me Your Mercy)
Ngirir’ imbabazi (Grant me Your Mercy)
Iyo uza kunsaba igitambo (If You were to ask me for a sacrifice)
Ntakiguzi narikubona (I could not find a price for it)
Igitambo wishimira (The sacrifice that would please You)
N’umutima umenetse (Is my broken heart)
Refrain:
Ndema mumutim’ utunganye (Create in me a clean heart)
Unyigishe guca bugufi (Teach me to be humble)
Buri munsi , buri munsi! (Every day, Every day!)
Ntaho nagera njye ngusize (I cannot take a step without You)
Ndagusab’ uhor’ unyobora (I ask You to lead me)
Buri munsi , buri munsi! (Every day, Every day!)
Wandike amategeko yawe (Write Your commandments)
Ku ndiba y’umutima wanjye (Inside by heart)
Buri munsi , buri munsi! (Every day, Every day!)
Mpisemo guhora nkizwa (I have chosen to be holy)
mpisemo inzira yagakiza (I have chosen the Spiritual Way)
Buri munsi , buri munsi! (Every day, Every day!)
