Silindel’ usuku, olukhulu (We are waiting for that Day)
Olokubuya kwe Nkosi UJesu (when the Jesus shall appear)
Laph’ abangcwele, bona bezoxhwilwa (when the saints will be chosen)
We bangcwele, Haleluya (Oh the Holy Ones, Hallelujah)

We bangcwele, Ikhona imiqhele (The saints have crowns)
Ebekelwe, Ebekelwe amaqhawe (That were set aside for warriors)
Nditsho nezingubo, Oh ezimhlophe (they will be clothed with spotless garments)
Zihlanjwe egazini elika Yesu (that were washed by the Blood of the Lamb)
Yek ‘injabubulo! injabulo! (Oh what joy! what joy!)
‘Yokwazana, yeka jesu sisela (To know Jesus who will be there)

Oh Nkosi Yami (Oh My Lord) Lyrics by Ntokozo Mbambo

Leave a comment


(Sung in Zulu)

Ukhuthaz’ umoya wami (You inspire my soul)
Uvuselel’ ukholo lwami (You revive my faith)
Ngezwi lakho elimi phakade (With Your word that stands forever)
Nguwe uMduduzi (You are a Comforter)
Ungumelulek’ omuhle (You are an excellent advisor)
Uyamangalisa njalo njalo (You are amazing all the time)

Uma ngilingwa (When I go through tests)
Ngihlaselwa ngichotshozwa (When I’m attacked and provoked)
Ngikhumbul’ imisebenzi Yakho emihle (I remember all of Your good deeds)
Ngibal’ izibusiso (I count my blessings)
Umoya wami ukudumise (My soul praises You)
Wena ulithemba lami (You are my hope)
Oh Nkosi yam! (Oh my Lord!)

When all my strength has gone
On this rough and winding road
I’m reminded of all You said in Your holy word
You said You’d never leave me
Nor would You forsake me
You said You’d always be with me
Even till the end of the age!

Oh. Oh, oh, oh…

Baba wethu, (Our Father,)
Baba wethu singenile (Our Father we have entered)
Endaweni eyingcwele (This holy place)
Wena sewusimemile (You have invited us)
Woza phela usondele (Come closer)
Mawusize, inceku yakho (Help your Servant)
Ekufundiseni kwayo (In Your teaching)
Mawehlise uMoya wakho phezu komphefumulo wayo (Lower your Spirit on his soul)

Vul’ izintliziyo, zethu (Open our hearts)
Siliqonde izwi lakho (To understand Your Word)
Susa ubumnyama ezweni (Remove the darkness in the world)
Siphe ukukhanya kwakho (Give us your light)
Masihambe, emhlabeni (Let us leave the earth)
Njengokusho kwezwi lakho (As Your Yord says)
Masingene ezulwini, ezulwini, ezulwini (Let us enter heaven, heaven, heaven)
Ngako ukusiza kwakho (With Your help)

Nguye lo, ubaba wethu (This is He, our Father )

Osithandayo thina (Who loves us)

Mhaliphathwe ngobungcwel’ igama lakho (Hallowed be Your Name)

(Refrain)

Siphe namhla isinkwa sethu (Give us today our daily bread)
Esemihla ngemihla baba (For today Father)
Nguye lo (this is He)
