(Sung in Swahili)

Moto unaoteketea (Holy Spirit fire)
Moto unaoteketea (Fire that burns)
Wewe ndiwe tamaa ya moyo wangu (You are the desire of my heart)
Wewe ndiwe tamaa ya moyo wangu (You are the desire of my heart)

Roho wa Mungu, nibatize mimi (Spirit of God, baptize me)
Roho wa Mungu, unijaze tena (Spirit of God, fill me again)
Roho wa Mungu, nibatize mimi (Spirit of God, baptize me)
Roho wa Mungu, unijaze tena (Spirit of God, fill me again)

Refrain:
Niende wapi, nikukwepe roho wa Mungu? (Where can I go to escape from the Holy Spirit?)
Kunishawishi moyo, kama wewe hautakoma (To convince my heart, that you will not stop)
Moyo wangu ni wako, uhai wangu pia wako (My heart is yours, my life is yours)
Moyo wangu ni wako, uhai wangu pia wako (My heart is yours, my life is yours)

(Refrain)

Roho wa Mungu, unijaze tena (Spirit of God, fill me again)
Roho wa Mungu, nibatize mimi (Spirit of God, baptize me)
Roho wa Mungu, unijaze tena (Spirit of God, fill me again)

Bridge:
Waka waka, ndani yangu waka waka (waka waka) (Burn within me, burn)
Teketea, ndani yangu, teketea (teketea) (Burn within me, burn) (Repeat)

Repeat: Bridge
Raha yangu ni wewe, amani yangu ni wewe tu (My joy is you, my peace is you)
Nisionekane, uonekane wewe (Let me not be seen, but You)
Kilicho ndani yangu Yesu, iwe ni wewe pekee yako (What is within me Jesus, be only you)

Roho wa Mungu, nibatize mimi (Spirit of God, baptize me)
Roho wa Mungu, unijaze tena (Spirit of God, fill me again)(Repeat)

(From the Bridge)

Ombi Langu (My Prayer) Lyrics by Rose Muhando

1 Comment


(Sung in Swahili)

Hili ni ombi langu kwako, ee Mungu wangu (This is my prayer to You, my God)
Unitendee jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)
Hii ni sala yangu kwako, ee Baba yangu (This is my prayer unto you, my Father)
Unifanyie jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)
Nimesubiri kuvushwa, toka nilipo (I have waited to be promoted from where I am)
Unitendee jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)
Moyo wangu watumaini, kwamba wewe unaweza (My heart hope that You will)
Unifanyie jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)
Nimeona umetenda kwa wengi, kwenye maisha yao (I have seen you do unto others’ lives)
Nami unitendee jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)
Nimeona umeinua wengi, kwenye maisha yao (I have seen you lifting others’ lives)
Unitendee jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)

Yule mjane wa Naini, aliyefiwa na mwanawe (The widow in Nain, that lost her child)
Ulibadili historia yake (You changed her history)
Lazaro siku nne kaburini, mimi sijamwona kushtuka (Lazarus four days in the grave, we’ve never seen such wonder)
Ulishangaza mafarisayo (You amazed the Pharisees)
Mwanamke aliyetokwa na damu, miaka kumi na miwili (The woman who bled for 12 years)
Ulibadili maisha yake, unitendee (You changed her life, change mine as well)
Aliyepooza yuko kule, anasubiri muujiza wako (The paralytic is there, waiting for your miracle)
Yesu nakuomba, unitendee (Jesus I pray, do unto me)
Maisha yangu yanajaa mapooza, uko wapi nabii? (My life is full of paralysis, prophet, where are you?)
Ubadili maisha yangu (Change my life as well)

Nimechoka kufinyiliwa, nimechoka kukanyagiwa Yesu (Jesus I am tired of being oppressed and stepped on)
Unitendee jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)
Nimesubiri kupandishwa cheo, lakini imetosha (I have waited for promotion, now that is enough)
Unitendee jambo jipya (Do something new unto me)
Nimeajiriwa miaka mingi, kwenye kampuni hii (I have been hired for a long time in this company)
Lakini sijapandishwa cheo (But I have not been promoted)
Walioajiriwa mwaka jana, wengine wamepandisha vyeo (The ones hired last year, some have already been promoted)
Sasa wanaitwa maprofesa (Now they are called professors)

Ombi langu kwako, ombi langu kwako (My prayer to you, my prayer to you)
Sala yangu kwako, naomba unitendee (My prayer unto you, I pray that you do unto me)
Unitendee, inuka unitendee (Do unto me, rise and do unto me)
Yesu nakuomba, unitendee (Jesus I pray, do unto me)

Refrain:
Unitendee, unitendee (Do unto me)
Yesu, nakuomba unitendee (Jesus, I pray that You do unto me)
Unitendee, unitendee (Do unto me)
Fanya jambo jipya, unitendee (Do something new unto me) (Repeat)

Eliya naye alilala, pale chini ya mretemu (Elijah too slept under the juniper tree)
Ulimtuma kunguru kwake (You sent the raven to him)
Alipata nguvu Bwana, ya kushindana na adui zake (Lord his strength was restored to contend with his enemies)
Ulibadili maisha yake (You changed his life)
Mimi ni nani mbele zako? Ulinifia msalabani (Who am I before You? Yet You died on the cross for me)
Hebu badili hatima yangu (Change my future)
Yesu badili historia yangu, badili maombi yangu (Jesus change my history, change my prayer)
Badili maisha yangu, unitendee (Change my life and do unto me)

(Refrain)

Say thank you to the most high (asante)
He has seen you, through the night
And He’s blessed you with the morning light

Refrain:
Amekuonekania (He’s seen You), He’s faithful
Amekuonekania(He’s seen You), He’s merciful
Amekuonekania(He’s seen You), He’s wonderful
Oh Yes, oh yeah
Ongea Naye (talk to Him), oh yeah
Tembea naye (walk with Him) , oh yeah

Seek Him out (mtafute) and he will find you
He will erase (futilia mbali) all your fears
And restore You to grace

(Sung in Swahili – A Hymn)

Mbeleni naendelea (I’m pressing on the upward way)
Ninazidi kutembea (New heights I’m gaining every day)
Mombi uyasikie (Still praying as I’m onward bound)
Ee Bwana unipandishe (Lord, plant my feet on higher ground)

Refrain:
Ee Bwana uniinue (Lord, lift me up and let me stand)
Kwa imani nisimame (By faith, on Heaven’s table land)
Nipande milima yote (A higher plane than I have found)
Ee Bwana unipandishe (Lord, plant my feet on higher ground)

(Refrain)

Sina tamaa ni nikae (My heart has no desire to stay)
Mahali pa shaka kamwe (Where doubts arise and fears dismay)
Hapo wengi wanakaa (Though some may dwell where those abound)
Kuendelea naomba (My prayer, my aim, is higher ground)

(Refrain)

Nataka nipandishwe juu (I want to scale the utmost height)
Zaidi ya yale mawingu (And catch a gleam of glory bright)
Ninaomba nifikishwe (But still I’ll pray till heaven I’ve found)
Ee Bwana unipandishe (Lord, lead me on to higher ground)

(Refrain)
