(Sung in Kiswahili)

Bwana mimi sina mtu wa kuniinua (Lord, I have no one to lift me)
Kunitia kwenye birika (And help me into the pool)
Kila maji yanapotibuliwa na malaika (Whenever the water is stirred by the Angel)
Wengine hushuka kabla yangu Bwana (Others go ahead of me, Lord)

Refrain:
Simama! Simama kwa imani (Arise! Arise in faith)
Ujitwike godoro lako uende (Pick up your mat and go)
Simama! Simama ukanyage (Arise! Arise and step forward)
Yesu yuko nawe, kanyaga nenda (Jesus is with you, walk)
Simama! Simama kwa imani (Arise! Arise in faith)
Ujitwike godoro lako uende (Pick up your mat and walk)
Simama! Simama ukanyage (Arise! Arise and step forward)
Yesu yuko nawe, uende (Jesus is with you, walk)

Umelala hivyo hivyo siku nyingi sana (You have been lying there for many days)
Unatamani kuinuka (You long to get up)
Mtazame Bwana Yesu kwa imani kuu (Look to the Lord Jesus with great faith)
Utaimarika, utatoka hapo ah! (You will be strengthened, you will rise)

(Refrain)

Mipango mingi upangayo haifanikiwi (Many plans you make do not succeed)
Unatamani mafanikio (You long for success)
Mkabithi Bwana Yesu mipango yako (Entrust your plans to the Lord Jesus)
Utafanikiwa, utavuka hapo, ah! (You will succeed, and cross that season)

(Refrain)

Migogoro ya ndoa, ya kikazi, na jamii (Strife from your marriage, workplace, and society)
Imekutesa mpaka wachoka (Have troubled and exhausted)
Jamani maliza yote kwa kumpa Bwana Yesu (End it all by entrusting them to the Lord Jesus)
Kwa imani kuinuka uende (Rise up in faith and walk)

(Refrain)

Basi ndugu, sio mwili wako uliolala (So then, brother, your body is not asleep)
Wala sio unaumwa (It is not that you are sick)
Badala yake kilicho lala ni imani yako (Rather, it is your faith that is asleep)
Yesu yuko nawe, kanyaga nenda (Jesus is with you, walk)
Amini usimame (Believe and stand up)
Yesu yuko nawe, kanyaga nenda (Jesus is with you, walk)
Imani ikuponye (May faith heal you)
Yesu yuko nawe, kanyaga nenda (Jesus is with you, walk)
Haya nyanyuka, uende kwa furaha (Come on, get up and go with joy)
Yesu yuko nawe, kanyaga nenda (Jesus is with you, walk)

(Sung in Kiswahili)

Mungu kwetu, ni kimbilio (God is our Refuge)
Msaada tele, wakati wa mateso (The present help in times of troubles)
Nguvu yangu, Mwamba wangu (My Strength, and my Rock)
Nishikie mkono (Take hold of my hand) (Repeat)

Nakutegemea, ewe Bwana (I depend on You, oh Lord)
Pekee yangu sitaweza (I cannot make it on my own)
Nakutegemea, ewe Bwana (I depend on You, oh Lord)
Nishikie mkono (Take hold of my hand) (Repeat)

Nitaandamana nawe (I will walk with You)
Nitakuishia wewe! (I will live for You alone)
Milele yote, n’takuinua juu (Forever I will exalt You on high)
Nishikie mkono (Take hold of my hand) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Nishikie mkono (Take hold of my hand) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Bila uwepo wako Yesu (Without Your Presence, Jesus)
Hatuna nguvu (We are powerless)
Ndani yako ewe Yesu (But in You, Jesus)
Twapata nguvu (We find strength) (Repeat)

(Sung in Kiswahili)

Ee Baba, sio kwamba nateseka (Oh Father, it’s not that I am suffering)
Ama nina wivu na baraka za wengine (Or that I am jealous of other’s blessings)
Hapana niko sawa (No, I am content)
Ee Baba, sio kwamba nakukumbusha (Oh Father, it’s not that I am reminding You)
Kwamba labda umenisahau (That perhaps You have forgotten me)
Hapana, najua unanijua kwa jina (No, I know You know me by name)
Unaona nayopitia (You see what I am going through)

Ila kama mwanadamu kuna muda (But as a man there are times)
Moyo unauma nazidiwa (That I hurt and I’m overwhelmed)
Sa’ n’tamueleza nani kama si wewe? (Who would I tell, if not You?)
Mi ni kama mtu, kuna muda mambo (I’m just a man, there are times when things)
Yananizidia, nazidiwa (Burden me and I’m overwhelmed)
Sa’ n’tamwambia nani kama si wewe? (Who would I tell, if not You?)

Unapowabariki wengine (When You bless others)
Usiniache na mimi (Do not forget me)
Usiniache na mimi (Do not leave me behind)
Baba nakungoja (Father, I wait for You)
Unapowapa riziki wengine (When You provide for others)
Unikumbuke na mimi (Remember me)
Unikumbuke na mimi (Remember me too)
Baba nakungoja (Father, I wait for You)
Unapowabariki wengine (When You bless others)
Usiniache na mimi (Do not forget me)
Usiniache na mimi (Do not leave me behind)
Baba nakungoja (Father, I wait for You)

Riziki mafungu saba (There are seven portions of provision)
Pengine la kwangu la sita (Perhaps mine is the sixth)
Ila wewe pekee ndio unaweza ibadili hata ikawa kumi (You alone can change my destiny)
Sifikiri Mungu Baba (Father God, I do not think) 
Kwamba mi nd’o mwema kabisa (That I am the most righteous)
Ila naomba ipokee ikipendeza (I pray that if it pleases You)  
Dua yangu nifute hali duni (My humble prayer to erase my poverty)
Baba mi nikila na kulala (Father, when I eat and sleep)
Kupata shiba tu naridhikiwa (I will be content with enough)
Wape magari, nipe ndala (Give them cars, but give me sandals)
Walau miba kusitirika (For they protect my feet)
Ukinipa nyumba pia  (If You give me a house too)
Siwezi danganya n’tafarijika (I cannot lie, I will be comforted)
Pengine Baba biashara (Perhaps, Father, a business)
Wateja waje kutiririka (And the customers to come in plenty)

Maana kama mwanadamu kuna muda (For as a man there are times)
Mambo yananizidi, nazidiwa Baba (I’m overwhelmed by burdens)
Sa’ n’tamueleza nani kama si wewe? (So who will I tell if not You?)
Oh, kule ada, huku kodi ya pango (Tuition is demanded there, rent over here)
Na mfukoni sina kitu sina mambo (But my pockets are empty, and I have no plans)
Sa’ n’tamwambia nani kama si wewe? (Who would I tell if not You?)
Oh, Baba unapowabariki wengine. (Oh, Father, when You bless others)

Unapowabariki wengine (When You bless others)
Usiniache na mimi (Do not forget me)
Usiniache na mimi (Do not leave me behind)
Baba nakungoja (Father, I wait for You)
Unapowapa riziki wengine (When You provide for others)
Unikumbuke na mimi (Remember me)
Unikumbuke na mimi (Remember me too)
Baba nakungoja (Father, I wait for You)
Unapofuta machozi wengine (When You wipe away the tears of others)
Usiniache na mimi (Do not forget me)
Usiniache na mimi (Do not leave me behind)
Baba nakungoja (Father, I wait for You)
Unapowainua wengine (When You lift others up)
Unikumbuke na mimi (Remember me)
Unikumbuke na mimi (Remember me too)
Baba nakungoja (Father, I wait for You)
