67 Comments


(Sung in Zulu/Xhosa)

Kwanqab’Umusa (Mercy said no)
Nibona ngiphila njena (You see I am now like this) (?)
uThixo akavumanga, (Because God denied [the devil’s plans])
Ngempilo yami (Against my life)
(repeat)

Wathi “Cha, ‘ngeke ngivume (He said “No, I will not let you fall) – .
Unyawo lakho lushelele”(or your foot to slip”)
uThixo akavumanga, (God denied [the devil’s plans])
Ngempilo yami (Against my life)
(Repeat)

Kwakumele ngihlushwe (My suffering was good for me)
Ukuze ngaz’imiso zakho (For it taught me your decrees)
Impela njengo Jakobe (Surely just like Jacob)
Kwakumele ngilingwe (You will defend and preserve me) 

Kodwa ngoba mina angazi (It is because I know You)
Ukuthi wena uyisiphephelo sami (that you are my shield)
Impela nguwe owanqaba (truly it is you that will block plans)
Nempilo yami (against my life)

Don’t be discouraged
Joy comes in the morning
Know that God is nigh
Stand still, and look up
God is going to show up
He is standing by (Repeat)

There’s healing for your sorrow
Healing for your pain
Healing for your spirit
The shelter from the rain
Lord, send your healing
For this we know;
There is a balm in Gilead
(To heal the sick/wounded souls)
To heal your soul (Repeat)

There’s healing for your soul
