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)

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)

(Sung in Swahili)

Kuna yule aliyenipenda (There is one who Loved me)
Si kwa ajili ya mali (Not because of wealth)
Alinipenda wala hakujali udhaifu wangu (Who loved me without caring for my weakness)
Akanionyesha upendo ambao sijaona kwa wengine (Who gave me love that I have not seen in others)
Huyu halali wala, hasizinzii (Who does neither sleeps nor slumbers)
Hata leo hajawai kunichoka (Even today, has never tired of me) (Repeat)

Sikutafuta, ni yeye alikuja kwangu (I did not seek Him, He came to me)
Ingawazaje dhambi, makosa yangu (Despite my sins and mistakes)
Yesu alinipenda wa kwanza (Jesus loved me faster)
Nikamwamini, yeye kanisamehe dhambi (I believed in Him, and He forgave my sins)
Upendo wake, Yesu yeye wanishangaza (His Love, Jesus amazes me)

Yesu, huyu Yesu, rafiki mwema (Jesus, this Jesus ,is a good Friend)
Yesu, huyu Yesu ninampenda (Jesus, this Jesus, I love Him) (Repeat)

Yesu kristo Bwana wangu, ni rafiki mwema (Jesus Christ, My Lord, is a good Friend) x4

Yesu huyu Yesu rafiki mwema (Jesus, this Jesus is a good Friend)
Yesu huyu Yesu ninampenda (Jesus, this Jesus, I love Him) (Repeat)
