(Languages: Kiswahili, English)

Macho yangu ni ya nyama (My eyes are of flesh)
Haioni kesho, yanaona tu sasa (They do not see tomorrow, only now)
Ee Bwana nakuomba nipe mwanga (Oh Lord, I ask You that You give me the light)
Nisije kajikwaa kwenye hii giza (That I may not stumble in this darkness)
Dunia sio sehemu salama (The world is not a safe place)
Hujui nani ni nani na nani anataka nini (You do not know who people are or what they desire)
Nd’o maana nakuweka Mungu kwanza (That is why I put You God first)
Akili na nafsi na roho (My mind, my soul, and my spirit)
Navikupa umiliki (I surrender them to You)

Kukupendeza si rahisi, Oh God (Pleasing You is not easy, O God)
Naomba nyingine nafasi, mara moja (I pray for another chance)
Maisha ni njia nyembamba (Life is a narrow path)
Pour out Your Spirit on me
Nitafuata lile usemalo (I will follow what You command )

Refrain:
Niongoze, niongoze (Lead me, guide me)
Bila wewe mi kweli siwezi fanya lolote (Without You, I can do nothing)
Baba niongoze, niongoze (Father lead me and guide me)
Bila wewe mi kweli siwezi (Without you I will be lost)

So I pray that You
Lead me, lead me, lead me on
Lead me on (Repeat)

Bila we mi nitaanguka (Without You, I will fall)
Ni siri yako kama kesho n’taamka (Only You know if I’ll wake tomorrow)
Ninajiuliza je ukiniacha (I ask myself, if You were to leave me)
N’takuwa mgeni wa nani kwenye hii dunia? (Who will I belong to in this world?)
Ndio maana nakuweka Mungu kwanza (That is why I put You God first)
Over all, take a lead, I’mma follow
What You need

Huko nilikotoka walinitreat vibaya (Where I came from, I was treated badly)
They give something for something
Sina matamanio tena ya kurudi nyuma (I have no desire to go back)
I promise, I’ll be a good kid (Repeat)

(Refrain)

So/Lord I pray that You
Lead me, lead me, lead me on
Lead me on (Repeat)

Macho yangu ni ya nyama (My eyes are of flesh)
Haioni kesho, yanaona tu sasa (They do not see tomorrow, only now)
Ee Bwana nakuomba nipe mwanga (Oh Lord, I ask You that You give me the light)
Nisije kajikwaa kwenye hii giza (That I may not stumble in this darkness)

Mkatoliki (A Catholic) Lyrics by Kwaya ya Mt. Secilia Makuburi

Leave a comment


(Sung in Kiswahili)

Ni moja, ni moja jana, ni moja leo (It is the same, yesterday and today)
Ni moja asili yake ni Yesu Kristo  (The foundation is Jesus Christ)
Ibada moja, sheria moja, mapokeo yale yale  (Common worship, common norm and traditions)
Limeenea pande zote, ulimwengu mzima (Has spread throughout the world)

Refrain:
(Najivunia) Nimezaliwa kwenye moja ([I’m proud] Born to the one)
Kanisa takatifu sana  (The holy church)
Katoliki la mitume kweli (Catholic of the apostles/saints)
Nikabatizwa, mimi Mkatoliki (I have been baptized, I’m a Catholic) (Repeat)

Liliwachwa mikononi mwa halifa wake, Mtume Petro
(It was left to His steward, apostle Peter)
Alipokabidhiwa na Bwana Yesu alichunge Kanisa
(He was entrusted by Lord Jesus to shepherd the Church)
Mridhi wake ndiye Papa wetu, Baba Mtakatifu
(His successor is our father, the holy Pope)

(Refrain)

Sakramenti za kutuweka karibu kabisa na Mwenyezi
(The Sacraments that place us closer to the Almighty)
Ubatizo, ekaristi, kipaimara, upadre na ndoa
(Baptism, Eucharist, confirmation, priesthood and matrimony)
Na kitubio, mpako wa wagonjwa kujipatanisha na Baba
(Alongside confession and anointing of the sick to reconcile us with the Father)

(Refrain)

Repeat: Simama eh tumshangilie Mungu, kwa zawadi ya imani Katoliki (Stand let us praise God for the gift of the Catholic faith)
Mkatoliki simama (Stand, Catholic)
Tusimame tulinde imani yetu (Stand, let us defend our faith)
Sheria za kanisa ni nguzo yetu (The Church’s laws our foundation)
Amri kumi za Mungu msingi wetu (The ten commandments of God our foundation)
Amri ya upendo yamaliza yote (The commandment of Love completes it all)
