Leave a comment


(Sung in Swahili)

Ombi langu Bwana nifike kwako (My prayer Lord, is to reach to You)
Ijapo njia zangu ni nyembamba (Though my paths be narrow)
Nitembee nawe Yesu Mwokozi wangu (To walk with You, Jesus my savior)
Dhoruba zijapo nitazishinda (I shall conquer the storms that come my way)

Refrain:
Mtakatifu Mungu mwenyezi (Holy God Almighty)
Alfajiri sifa zako tutaimba (We will sing Your praises at dawn)
Malaika wengi wanakuabudu (Host of Angels worship You)
Elfu maelfu wanakusujudu (Thousands and tens of thousands bow before You)
Ingawa giza linatuficha (Though the darkness hide us)
Fahari tusione (We should not be proud)
Wewe utatuwezesha mbinguni (For You will lead us unto heaven)
Makao ya raha (The home of joy)

Nitembee nawe Mungu (To walk with You God)
Unene nami kwa upole (Speak to me gently)
Ingawa njia sioni (Though I do not see the path)
Maana dhoruba baharini (For the sea is stormy)
Mitego ya miguu elfu (And there are traps for a thousand lengs)
Ukinishika mkono (But if You hold my hands)
Anasa kwangu hasara (Earthly luxuries for me are meaningless)
Tautika msalaba (I shall carry the cross)
Hata mji wa Zayuni (Until the city of Zion)
(Mimi) Nitapata pumziko (Where I shall find rest)

Repeat: (Mimi) Nitapata pumziko (Where I shall find rest)
Ule mji wa Zayuni (In that City of Zion)
Kwetu mji wa Zayuni (Our City of Zion)

(Refrain)

(Sung in Swahili)

Ufumo hauwezi kukusaidia (The structure will not help you)
Rafiki hawezi kukusaidia (Friends will not help you)
Mukuyu (?) hawezi kukusaidia (Practices(?) will not help you)
Mpenzi hawezi kukusaidia (Your lover will not help You)
Usheshindwa, yo hilo (You have been defeated by things)
Kwa mwanadamu hilo hilo (That is of the flesh)
Ulilete hilo, hilo (Bring them all)
Kwa Bwana Yesu, hilo hilo (To the Lord Jesus)
Amesema anatenda, umwamini (He said He will do it, believe Him)
Hajawai acha neno lipotee (He has never let His Word go in vain)
Alisema atatenda, nimeona (He said He will do it, and I’ve witnessed it)
Hajawahi shindwa kitu mfalme (The King has never been defeated)

Pre-Chorus:
Ndio yake moja, inabadilisha maisha (One yes from Him, changes lives)
Ndio yake moja, huleta amani (His one yes, brings peace)
Akisema sawa, utaheshimishwa (If He says yes, You will be respected)
Mwite tu, mwite tu, mwite tu (Just call Him, Just call Him, Just call Him)

Refrain:
Yupo mwenye majibu (The One with the answers is present)
Yeye asiye lala (The One who does not sleep)
Ndio, kwake ni ndio (Yes, in Him is Yes)
Hakuna, hakuna (Nothing, Nothing) (Repeat)

Kiti cha enzi, Kiti cha sifa (The Throne of authority, the Throne of praise)
Nyenyekea, utapata majibu (Humble yourself, You will receive your answers)
Kiti cha karne, zamani zote (The Throne of centuries, throne of ages)
Amini, amini, kuna jibu (Believe, believe, there is an answer)

Ameketi kwenye enzi (He is seated in authority)
Hakuna jambo gumu tena (There is nothing impossible again)
Kama afya, na uzima (Be it health, be it life)
Lolote, amini, amini (In everything, believe, believe)

Anajua maumivu (He knows the pain)
Anaona na machozi (He sees the tears)
Yeye ni Baba, yeye mlezi (He is the Father, He is the Caregiver)
Daima, daima, daima (Forever, forever forever)

(Pre-Chorus + Refrain)

Tunapoandamia, tegemea, egemea – Bwana (As we toil, as we trust, as we lean on)
Mbawani mwako ni salama, tena (We find shelter under Your wings, also)
Jemedari wa majeshi ya ushindi, ushinde lote (The General of the Army of Victory, conquer all)
Tutashinda kwa heshima tena (We shall be victorious in respect once again)

(Refrain)

(Languages: English, Swahili, Zulu)

Refrain:
‘Cause I’m certain brighter days are yet to come
Ain’t no question that tomorrow they’ll good times
Good times, I believe with every bit of my heart
(Repeat)

I’m on a one way train
Tenda nenda zangu (I do good and go on my way), Do my best
Saa zingine huwa ni noma (Other times it is difficult) x2
Imani yangu inanichoma (My faith fails me)
But I know that they’ll be a better day

I’m living on the edge
Sijui nitashuki kwa gani stage (I don’t know when it will end)
Life inanisunda kwa corner (Life has cornered me)
(Sunda kwa corner) (Has cornered me)
Emotionally niko kwa (I’m at the) border
I pray, I pray for better days

(Refrain)

Siku zikizidi, nazidi makinika zaidi (As days go by, I continue to keep on)
I’m holding on a little bit longer
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger
I see, I see a brighter day

Ngiyabona (I see) , vision of Love from up above
The sun is not far away
Nawasha taa, naona far (I will light my lamp, I will see far)
I know I’ll be OK
Reach for the stars, with everything in my heart

I know, I know, I know, I know

(Refrain)

There is going to be days like these
We need to be stronger
Misukosuko na mahangaiko (Troubles and anxiety)
Ni hali ya dunia, Mungu yupo (Is the state of the world, God exists)

And in days like these, wee need to rise up
Wakijaribu kutuzika, tutagerminate (When they try to bury us, we shall)
Our lives will never be the same

Ngiyakhol’, Ngiyakholwa (I believe, I believe)
Ngiyakhol’, Ngiyakholwa (I believe, I believe)
I believe with every bit of my heart
I believe with every bit of my heart

Bwana unafurahisha moyo wangu (Lord, You gladden my heart)

Bwana ni taa ya miguu yangu (The Lord is the light onto my path)
Mwanga wa njia yangu (My light and my path)
Anilindaye hasinizi wala halali (The one who watches me does not sleep)

Wewe ni mwaminifu, wakati wote (He is faithful, at all times)

When God is on my side, I don’t have to be stressed
I don’t have to be troubled
When God is by my side, I don’t have to be stressed

What I just do, I put a dance, a song of praise
And I just swag
Knowing that God, Is protecting me
He is covering me, He is always by my side

(Languages: Swahili, English)

Refrain:
El Shaddai, uko na kile me nadai (God Almighty, You have all that I need)
Ulinipenda hata Kama me sifai (You loved me, even though I was not worthy)
El Shaddai, El Shaddai, El Shaddai (God Almighty, God Almighty, God Almighty)
(Repeat)

He is an awesome God
Amenipa (He has given me) such an awesome song
And I’m never lonely
Amenipa (For He has given me) such an awesome Love
He is an awesome God
And I wanna tell it to the world
Ili wajue ni wewe (That they may know that it is through You)
Kama si wewe basi nani? (If not You, then who?)

Nasikia landlordi (I hear the landlord)
Ako kwa njia anataka kodi (On his way wanting his tax)
Ni wewe utaprovide (It is You who will provide)
Na nina ngori moyoni zinanijaza worry (I have trouble in my heart, it is full of worry)
Ila nitakuwa fine (I want to be OK)

(Refrain)

Every day Every day Is an awesome day
Na vile unanibariki (And the way You bless me)
Hata mimi sielewi (I cannot understand)
And everyday, everyday
You come through in an awesome way
Kwenye dhiki, nimepata rafiki (In times of trouble, You’ve given me a friend)
Rafiki wa kweli (A true friend)

Na kuna ka-loan mahali (And there is a loan somewhere)
Kalinijaza worry (That has filled me with worry)
Ni wewe utaprovide (It is You who will provide)
Nina mahari natamani kulipia mpenzi (And the dowry I wish to pay for my bride)
Sote tutakuwa fine (We will all be fine)
Na madaktari wanasema hali sio hali (And the doctors saying that I am not well)
Wewe unajua time (It is You who knows the time)
Nahisi nguvu zako kwangu (I feel Your strength in me)
I will call you El Shaddai

(Refrain)

Dear Lord, grant me the serenity
To accept, the things I cannot change
The courage to choose the things I know I can
And the wisdom, to know the difference

(Refrain)
