(Sung in Swahili)

Jehovah Jireh, msaada wangu (God my provider, my helper)
Nissi, Jehovah Shalom (My Banner, God of Peace)
(Repeat)

Abba Father Yahweh Mungu (Abba Father, Lord God)
Nilipopotea ulimtuma mwanawe Yesu mkombozi
(When I was lost you sent your son Jesus the Saviour)
Ukanikubali Baba, ukanirudisha mimi kwako
(You accepted me Father, and restored me to you)
Upendo huo ni wa ajabu (Amazing love!)

(Refrain)

Jina ndilo ngome, ngome imara (Your name is a strong tower)
Watakatifu hukimbilia, wakawa salama (The righteous run to it and are safe)
Mkate wa uhai, maji wa uzima (Bread of Life, Living Water)
Ni wewe Bwana, ni wewe Bwana (It is you Lord, it is You Lord)

(Refrain)

Majina yako ni mengi, lakini mimi nakuita (You have many names, but I call you)
Mshauri wa ajabu, Mungu mwenye nguvu (Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God)
Baba wa milele, Mfalme wa ajabu (Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace)

(Refrain)

(Sung in Swahili)

Chorus
Vipi nitakula na nguruwe (How can I eat with the pigs)
Ilhali Baba yangu ni tajiri wa matajiri? (While my Father is the richest of the rich?)
Nitarudi nikakiri dhambi zangu (I will return and admit my sins)
Nimwambie anisamehe anifanye mwana wake (And ask to be restored as His child)
Nisamehe, nisamehe (Forgive me, forgive me) x2

Refrain: Najua nimekukosea Baba (I know I have wronged you Father)
Baba, Baba yangu najua nimekukosea Baba (Father, my Father I have wronged you)x2
Hatuelewani (We are not on the same page)
Ukanipa mali (You gave me my portion)
Kenda nchi ya mbali (I travelled to a far country)
Nikatapanya (I spent it all)
Kwa washerati, najua, najua, najua (In wild living)
Nisamehe, nisamehe (Forgive me)

(Chorus)

Aibu na kusononeka (Shame and loneliness)
Zachanganya moyo na akili zangu (Overwhelm my heart and my thoughts)(Repeat)
Nitamwanza vipi, na mali nimeitapanya (Where will I start? I have nothing )
Nao mwili wangu, matambara shida kanivalisha (My clothes are rags)
Kwa mguu wangu, kokoto kachukua usukani (My feet are filled with stones)
Sijui kabisa, yote haya nitaelezaje (I do not know how to explain myself)
Lakini nimeamua, narudi, narudi (But I have resolved to return)
Nimeamua, narudi nikajitetee (I have resolved to return, and defend myself)

(Chorus)

Lingala Ya Yesu (Jesus’ Brand of Lingala) Lyrics by Pitson

(Sung in Swahili)

Imekuwa muda sasa papa sijakuimbia Lingala Baba
(It’s been a while, that I haven’t sung Lingala to you Father)
Nimekuwa nikishughulisha na mareggea na maragga
(I have been busy with Reggae and Ragga)
Mablues zikafanya mimi n’kalala  (And The Blues sent me to sleep)
Sasa nimeamka Baba naimba Lingala (But I’m now awake and singing Lingala)
Waliniambia lingala poa nifunge mshipi juu ya tumbo
(They told me a good Lingala is by tying my belt high)
Na nijue kilingala eti “petit Lingala le eza moke” (And for me to speak Lingala like “…”)
Wakaniambia Lingala poa niongee katikati ya wimbo
(They told me a good Lingala song has a speaking part)
“Naongea, na sina kitu cha kusema” (“I speak, when I have nothing to say”)
Mimi nasema Lingala ya Yesu haikuwangi complicated
(But I say that Jesus’ brand of Lingala is not complicated)
Ukipewa kagitaa tu (When you’re given the guitar chords) x2
Unainua mikono juu, unasifu Yesu juu (You lift your hands and praise Jesus)

Refrain:
Lingala ya Yesu wangu, inaokoa (My Jesus’ brand of Lingala; saves)
Lingala ya Yesu wangu, inabariki (My Jesus’ brand of Lingala; blesses)
Lingala ya Yesu wangu, si complicated (Jesus’ brand of Lingala; is not complicated)
Unasifu x3 Yesu juu (You simply praise x3 Are Raise Jesus High)

Sio lazima utoboe kila pahali ndio msanii usikike (You don’t need piercing to be heard)
Sio lazima magari ya kifahari ndio video ishike
(No need for luxury cars for your videos to be successful)
Sio lazima ujue kilingala ndio Congo ufike
(You don’t need to know Lingala to reach Congo)
Nao madancer, nguo zimewabana, zimewabana, hiyo hapana (And the tight clothes on dancers, that’s a no)

Mimi nasema Lingala ya Yesu haikuwangi complicated
(But I say that Jesus’ brand of Lingala is not complicated)
Ukipewa kagitaa tu (When you’re given the guitar chords) x2
Unainua mikono juu, unasifu Yesu juu (You lift your hands and praise Jesus)

(Refrain)

Unasifu x3 Yesu juu (You praise x3 Are Raise Jesus High)
Sio jina lako we msanii, unasifu Yesu Juu (Not your name artist, but Jesus’)

(Sung in Swahili)

Baraka nimepokea, kwako nimetulia mimi (I’ve received blessings, I’m rested in you)
Nisije tumbukia kwa mambo ya dunia  (That I may not get lost in the world)
Kwako nijifiche milele  (Hide me in You forever)
Fitina zanizingira, anasa kila kona  (Gossip and earthly pleasures surround me)
Kwa mikono yako, niweke mtakatifu  (Make me Holy with your hands)
Tokea leo hadi milele  (From now until forever)

Niwie radhi mimi, kwa makosa yote  (Forgive me, for all my sins)
Anipenda, anijali, anipenda  (He loves me, He cares for me, He loves me)
(Repeat)

Refrain:
Kazi ya msalaba, (The work of the cross)
Nimeipokea, nimekubali  (I’ve received it, I have accepted it)
Nitakusifu, nitakuimbia milele  (I  will praise and sing to you forever)
(Repeat)

Ilikuwa ni juzi tu, mwanzo kwangu katembea (It was recent that you visited me)
Ukapumzisha kwangu kugonjea  (You rested in me and I was content)
Lakini kwako zaidi nasogea  (But I move closer to you)
Nishiriki nawe kwa mazoea  (That I may worship with you often)
Zile kwako ndo napokea  (I receive all from you)
Nikuone, kwangu Baba ukinitendea  (Father let me see your work in me)

Wewe ndo wangu tu, mimi na wewe tu  (You are mine, You and me alone)
Nikwone kwangu ukinitendea  (Let me see your work in me) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Siri ni Yesu/Baba   (The secret is Jesus/Father)
Siri ni ye x2 siri ni yesu   (The secret is x2 The secret is Jesus) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

(Sung in Swahili)

Refrain:
Yupo  (He’s here) x8

Upo upako wa ajabu; humu (There’s a great anointing in this place)
Upo utulivu angani (There is peace in the air)
Njooni kwake Yesu, ni muweza (Come to Jesus, He is mighty)
Atawatuliza, maana yupo (He shall provide you rest, for He is here)

Refrain:

Yupo, yupo (He is here)
Avunjae nyila zote (The one that breaks every chains)
Na kubeba mizigo mizito (And carries heavy burdens)
Yupo, yupo, Kurejesha tumaini (He is here, to restore hope)
Kuwainua wanyonge (And lift the weak)
Njooni nyote, kabidhini mizigo zenu (Come all, surrender your burdens)
Atawabebea, maana yupo (He’ll carry them for you, for He’s here)

Mbona mwakawia kuja kwake? (Why hesitate coming to Him?)
Neema kuu ipo, ya ajabu (There is great and amazing grace)
Njooni kwake sasa, msihofu (Come to Him now, do not fear)
Mtamwona leo, maana yupo (You’ll see Him today, for He is here) (Repeat)

(Refrain)
