(Sung in Xhosa)

Bawo, Thixo Somandla, (Father, God Almighty)
Buyinton’ ubugwenxa bam? (What are our sins)
Azi senzen’ ebusweni beNkosi, (What have we wronged you, Lord)
Bawo, Thixo Somandla? (Father, God Almighty)

Azi senzeni na? (What have we done?) x2
Azi senzeni Nkosi yam, (What have we done, My Lord?)
Sigqibana nje! (That we kill each other thus!)

Emhlaben’ (This world)
Sibuthwel’ ubunzima (Is full of troubles) x2
Bawo, Thixo Somandla. (Father, God Almighty)

Mayedlule lendebe (May this cup pass from us), x2
Azi senzeni Nkosi yam (What have we dome My Lord),
Sigqibana nje (That We kill each other thus)!

Ndnesingqala (I have a continuous cry)
Enhliziyweni yam (Inside my heart)
Ndisolokho ndisitsho “Mngci! (I keep saying “Truly)
Ayidlule lendebe, (May this cup pass from us)
Bawo, Thixo Somandla”. (Father, God Almighty”)

(Sung in Xhosa – A Liturgy)

Siyakudumisa Thixo (We praise your name God)
Siyakuvuma ukuba unguYehova (We’re grateful that you’re Lord)
Umhlaba wonke ubhedesha wena (The world bows before you)
OYise ongunaphakade (You’re Everlasting)

Zonke iingelosi zimemeza kuwe (The angels worship you)
KwaneZulu nawo onke amandla akulo (And the earth before your might)
IKherobime neSerafime (The Cherubim and the Seraphim)
Zimana zimemeza kuwe (Always worship you)

Uyingcwele, uyingcwele uyingcwele! (You are holy)
Yehova Thixo wemikhosi (Lord, God almighty)
Izulu lizele kwanomhlaba (The fill the heavens)
Bubukhulu nobugcwalisa bakho (And the earth with your grace)

Amen, Ameni…

Nkosi ndithembe wena (Father my trust is in you)
Mandingaze ndidaniswe (That I may never be disgraced)
(Repeat)

Ingoma! Ingoma! (The Song)
Masibuyel’eNkosini (When the Lord returns)
Siphakamis’udumo lwayo (He’ll lift us up to His glory)

Khona ngekhaya ezulwini (When we enter our home in heaven)
Uyobekumnadi! (Oh how glorious!)

Bes’enkosini ephakamis’udumo lwayo (Before the Lord’s glory)
Ngengoma (With that song)

Refrain: Hosanna
Sabesizwe Hosanna (All the nations Hosanna)
Sabe kumbadi (Our glorious portion)
Siphika lobamba (Our portion)
Sihleli naye (We shall dwell with Him)
Uyabe kumnadi (You’re our portion)
Sihleli lobamba (We shall dwell with our portion)
Udumo uthixo enagweni Hosana (God your might is known)

Bes’enkosini…
