(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

(Sung in Swahili)

Bwana unafurahisha moyo wangu (Lord, You gladden my heart)
Ninayo sababu ya kuimba (I have a reason to sing)
Pumzi umenipa, furaha ukanipa (You’ve given me breath, given me joy)
Dhambi zangu kaondoa (You have wiped away my sins)
(Repeat)

Ndio maana nasema (That is why I say)

Refrain:
Yesu amenibariki (Jesus has blessed me)
Yesu ameninua (Jesus has lifted me)
Nikiwa naye moyoni (With Him in my heart)
Sitaogopa kamwe (I shall never be afraid) (Repeat)
Eh, eh, eh, sitaogopa kamwe (Eh, eh, eh, I will never be afraid) x3

(Refrain)

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)
Yu pamoja nami (He is with me)
Wewe ni mwaminifu, wakati wote (He is faithful, at all times)

(Refrain)

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
I don’t have to be troubled
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

(Refrain)

(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)

(Sung in Swahili)

Amka, amka jivike nguvu (Awake and dress in power)
Eh Sayuni mtumishi wangu (Oh Zion, my servant)
Nimekuita kwa jina lako (For I have called you by your name)
Utimize kusudi langu (To complete my will)
Kuwafungua waliofungwa (To release the bound)
Na mateka uhuru wao (And the hostages, their freedom)
“Ndio Bwana, nitaenda (“Yes Lord, I shall go)
Ndio Bwana, nitafanya” (Yes Lord, I shall do it)

Naujua wito wangu, kusudi lako (I know my calling and your will)
Nilitimize (To be done)
Sitikiswi, na majaribu (I am not shaken by trials)
Alieanzisha atamaliza (He who began the work will perfect it)
(Repeat)

Nijapopita kwenye bonde, kwenye maji mengi
(Though I pass through the valley, through many waters)
Naimarika kwa nguvu zako, yanijenga imani
(I am uplifted by Your Strength, it builds my faith)
Hutaniasha mpaka nifike (You will never leave me until I arrive)
Hutanicha niabike (You will not let me be ashamed)
Kwenye giza, ukafanyika mwanga (In darkness, You are light)
Baharini, ukafanyika njia (You made a way through the sea)
Na yule tubu ukanipa ushindi (And the one who confessed, You gave me victory)
Na kwenye mapango ya simba, nikatoka salama
(And from the lions’ cave, I emerged safe)
Na jangwani, ukafanya kisima (In the desert, you created a well)
Kile kisima, kisima cha uzima (The well, the well of life)
Na milango ya gereza ikafunguka (The doors of the jails were opened)
Nami nikawa huru, huru kwelikweli (And I became free, free indeed)

Naliona haki yangu (I see my justice)
Utukufu, jina jipya (Holiness and a new Name)
Mi mshindi, Mi mshindi, Mi mshindi! Daima (I victorious forever)
(Repeat)

Bridge:
Waliyoshindana nawe, wataaibika
(Those who fought you will be ashamed)
Wanioshindana nawe, wataanguka mbele yako
(Those who fought you, will fall before you)
Asema Bwana (Says the Lord) x3

Naliona haki yangu (I see my justice)
Utukufu, jina jipya (Holiness and a new Name)
Mi mshindi, Mi mshindi, Mi mshindi! Daima (I victorious forever)
(Repeat)

Mimi ni mshindi, ni mshindi (I am victorious)
Mi mshindi, Mi mshindi (I am victorious, victorious)
Mi mshindi daima (I victorious forever)

(Sung in Swahili)

Refrain:
Hesabu baraka zako moja kwa moja (Count your blessings one by one)
Zipe majina, zipe majina (And name them, name them)
Hesabu baraka zako moja kwa moja (Count your blessings one by one)
Na utashangaa, yale Mungu ametenda
(And you will be amazed by what God has done)
Na utashangaa, na utashangaa (And you will be amazed, you will amazed)
Na utashangaa, we utashangaa (And you will be amazed, you will amazed)
Na utashangaa, na utashangaa (And you will be amazed, you will amazed)
Wewe utashangaa, yale Mungu ametenda
(And you will be amazed by what God has done)

Kumbuka ulipokuwa umelazwa, wakakata tamaa
(Remember how you were admitted in hospital, and everybody gave up)
Wakatuma ujumbe kwa wote, marafiki jamaa
(They sent messages to all friends and family)
Wakasema huyo ametuacha, yamebaki masaa
(Saying, he has left us, it is only a matter of time)
Ona sasa ulivyo na afya nzuri, Bwana ametenda
(Now see how you have good health, for the Lord has done it for you)

Umeiona siku ya leo, Bwana ametenda
(You have seen this day, The Lord has done it)
Familia uliyo nayo, Bwana amekupa
(The family that you have, the Lord has given to you)
Hata nguo ulizo nazo, Bwana amekupa
(Even the clothes you have, The Lord has provided for you)
Oh, we utashangaa, yale Mungu ametenda
(Oh you will be amazed, by what God has done)

(Refrain)

Yesu ana mikate mitano, na samaki wawili
(Jesus had five loaves and two fishes)
Na kuna watu elfu tano, wake pia watoto
(And there were five thousand people, women and children)
Neno lasema alishukuru, na vikaongezeka
(The word says that He gave thanks, and they multiplied)
Watu wakala na vikabaki, vinashangaa
(People ate and there remained, amazing)

Jifunze kumshukuru Bwana, kwa hicho ulicho nacho
(Teach yourself to thank the Lord for what you have)
Hata kama ni kidogo sana, we shukuru unacho
(Even if it is a little, give thanks for what you have)
Kuna yule anayetamani, kuwa hapo ulipo
(For there are those who desire, to be where you are)
Wewe utashangaa, yale Mungu ametenda
(You will be amazed, by what God has done)

(Refrain)
