Acha upepo nao uvume (Let the storms rage)
Mimi nitakuabudu wewe (I will still worship You)
Chanzo cha uhai wangu, nakuabudu (The source of my Life, I worship You)
Acha giza nalo litande (Let the darkness )

(Sung in Swahili)

Refrain:
Uniongoze, bado nakuhitaji (Guide me, I still need You)
Uniongoze, Yesu kiongozi mwema (Guide me Jesus, the Wise Guide)
Moyo wangu unakuhitaji (My heart needs you)
Niongoze nivuke salama (Guide me to cross safely)
Mungu wangu, uniongoze (Guide me my God and lead me)
Ulisema naposhindwa, nikuite (You said to call you when I am defeated)
Hivi leo nakuita, nisikie (I call upon You today, hear me)
Usiende mbali nami (Do not go far from me)
Usiniache pekee yangu (Do not leave me alone)
Mungu wangu, uniongoze (Guide me, my God)

Dunia hii, ina mambo mengi sana baba (This work)
Sasa dhambi, imetawala dunia (Has dominated the world)
Walio okoka, wengine wanarudi nyuma (Some are backsliding)
Mi napenda nikupendeze Mungu, upendezwe nami! (I want to please You God, to be pleased by me!)
Niyashike maagizo yako, unifurahie! (To follow Your precepts, that You’d be pleased with me!)
Neno lako Yesu likae ndani yangu (Jesus, Your Word to abide in me)

(Refrain)

Kuna wengine, wachanganya Mungu na dunia (There are others who mix what is godly and wordly)
Na wengine, wanalibadili neno lako (And others keep changing Your World)
Yesu ukisema, na wao pia wanasema (Jesus when You speak, they also speak)
Mi nataka nikusikie Yesu ukisema nami !(I want to hear You Jesus when You speak with me)
Maana wewe ndio wa thamani, maishani mwangu! (For You are the valuable thing in my life)
Nguvu zako Yesu zikae ndani yangu (Your Power Jesus, to remain in me)

(Refrain)

Ni kweli Bwana, nimekutana na vita kali (Lord it is true, that I have fought hard battles)
Lakini Yesu, umepigana baadala yangu (YBut Jesus, You have fought on my behalf )
Wewe umekuwa, ni mwamba wa wokovu wangu (You have become the rock of my salvation)
Mbele yangu sijui kuna nini, unipiganie! (I do not know what is ahead of me, Fight for me!)
Usipokuwa nami sitaweza kitu, unishindie! (Without You, I cannot do anything, be my champion!)
Natamani sana nione uso wako jemedari wangu (I desire to see Your Face, my General)

(Refrain)

Ulisema naposhindwa, nikuite (You said to call you when I am defeated)
Hivi leo nakuita, nisikie (I call upon You today, hear me)
Usiende mbali nami (Do not go far from me)
Usiniache pekee yangu (Do not leave me alone)
Mungu wangu, uniongoze (Guide me, my God) (Repeat)

 

Dua (Prayer) Lyrics by Alice Kimanzi

Leave a comment


(Sung in Swahili)

Hali hii yangu (My current situation)
Isiwe nafasi ya kuto msifu Mungu (Should not be a time to forget to praise God)
Mahali nil’ofika pasi ninung’unishe moyo (Where I have reached, to not let my heart complain)
Daima nimshukuru (But forever to thank Him)
Nafsi yangu ‘sisahau (My self to not forget)
Yale yote ametenda (All that He has done for me)
Kwa upendo wake mwema (Through His Great Love)
Kanizingira kwa neema (And surrounding me with Grace)
Moyo wangu, vuta heri kwa subira (My soul, find joy in waiting)

Refrain:
Atajibu dua langu (He will answer my prayer)
Kwa njia Yake, na wakati Wake (In His way and in His time)
Atajibu dua langu (He will answer my prayer)
Kwa njia Yake, na wakati Wake (In His way and in His time)
Moyo tulia (Be still my heart)

Najua njia hii si rahisi (I know that this is not easy)
Natambua mlima huu umezidi (I understand that this mountain is difficult)
Uwezo wangu (Beyond my capability)
Egemeo ni Yesu tu (The fortress is only Jesus)
Na hata giza likija na mashaka pia (Even if darkness and doubts come)
Yazibe macho yangu (To veil my eyes)
Bado nitazidi, kwani Ye aliahidi (I will still continue, for He promised)
Nasadiki Neno lake kweli (And I believe His Word to be true)

(Refrain)

Kwani Yeye anakuona (For He sees you)
Tena Yeye anakujali (moyo tulia) (And He also cares for you (Be still my heart))
Anahisi uchungu wako (He senses your pain)
Tulia, tulia (Be still, be still)

(Refrain)

Yesu Kwetu Ni Rafiki (What a Friend we Have in Jesus) (Tenzi 9) Hymn Lyrics by Msanii Music Group

2 Comments


(Sung in Swahili – A Hymn)

Yesu kwetu ni rafiki (What a friend we have in Jesus)
Hwambiwa haja pia (All our sins and griefs to bear)
Tukiomba kwa Babaye (What a privilege to carry)
Maombi asikia (Everything to God in prayer)
Lakini twajikosesha (O what peace we often forfeit)
Twajitweka vibaya (O what needless pain we bear)
Kwamba tulimwomba Mungu (All because we do not carry)
Dua angesikia (Everything to God in prayer)

Una dhiki na maonjo (Have we trials and temptations?)
Una mashaka pia (Is there trouble anywhere?)
Haifai kufa moyo (We should never be discouraged)
Dua atasikia (Take it to the Lord in prayer!)
Hakuna mwingine Mwema (Can we find a friend so faithful)
Wa kutuhurumia (Who will all our sorrows share?)
Atujua tu dhaifu (Jesus knows our every weakness)
Maombi asikia (Take it to the Lord in prayer)

Je, hunayo hata nguvu (Are we weak and heavy laden)
Huwezi kuendelea (Cumbered with a load of care?)
Ujapodharauliwa (Though your friends despise you)
Ujaporushwa pia (Though they forsake you?)
Watu wange kudharau (Though you are despised)
Wapendao dunia (By worldly people)
Hukwambata mikononi (In his arms he’ll take and shield you)
Dua atasikia (You will find a solace there)
