Mwamba wenye imara (Rock of Ages, cleft for me)
Kwako nitajificha (Let me hide myself in thee)
Maji hayo na damu (Let the water and the blood)
Yaliyotoka humo (From thy wounded side which flowed)
Hunisafi na dhambi (Be of sin the double cure)
Hunifanya Mshindi (Save from wrath and make me pure)
Kwa kazi zote pia (Not the labors of my hands)
Sitimizi sheria (Can fulfill thy law’s demands)
Nijapofanya bidii (Could my zeal no respite know)
Nikilia na kudhii (Could my tears forever flow)
Hayaishi makosa (All for sin could not atone)
Ni we wa kuokoa (Thou must save, and thou alone)
Sina cha mkononi (Nothing in my hand I bring)
Naja msalabani (Simply to the cross I cling)
Nili tupu nivike (Naked, come to thee for dress)
Ni mnyonge nishike (Helpless, look to thee for grace)
Nili mchafu naja (Foul, I to the fountain fly)
Nioshe nisijafa (Wash me, Savior, or I die)
Nikungojapo chini (While I draw this fleeting breath)
Nakwenda kaburini (When mine eyes shall close in death)
Nipaapo mbinguni (When I soar to worlds unknown)
Nakukuona enzini (See thee on thy judgment throne)
Roho yangu na iwe (Rock of Ages, cleft for me)
Rahani mwako wewe (Let me hide myself in thee)

Alianza na kijana mzuri anawahi na kanisani (He started as a good man going to church)
Akisali ibada ya pili, anabaki hana jioni (Participating in the second service remaining until evening)

Akisema, ah ah, marafiki wote wanajua ni kweli (What he says, even his friends believe its true)
Sasa probleme hatujui ni nini (Now we don’t know what the problem is)
Hataki kabisa, hataki kanisa, amekuwa mcha pombe (He no longer wants the church, has become a believer of alcohol)
Amebadilika ameota mape-mapembe (He has changed, has grown horns)
Hashauriki, ameota mapembe (Cannot be counseled, has grown horns)
Amebadilika ameota mape-mapembe (Be has changed, has grown horns)
Wapi alipo, munielekeze? (Where is he? direct me to him)
Amefanana na yule malebo (He now looks like Malebo)
Suruali hapo, hapo (The way he wears his pants)
Nywele hapo, hapo (The way his hair is dressed)
Short skirt, hapo (The way her skirt is short)
Anamix pombe, hapo (The way he mixes his alcohol)
Tena anongeza kudanga hapo (The way he ?)
Mambo yote na hapo (All of his actions)
Ah rudisha, uhusiano wako na Mungu (Return to your relationship with God)
Urafiki wako, wako na Mungu (Your friendship with God)
Maisha unayoishi utaishianga motoni (The way you live now will result in hell)
Hauna rafiki wa kweli wako na sababu fulani (You do not have any true friends)
Oya badilika usifuge mape-mapembe (Change, so that you may not grow horns)
Wanakata mape-mapembe (The horns will be cut)
Tona usiinue ju, mape-mapembe (Careful do not raise the horns)
Eh joto, eh (You will end in hell)

Baridi mwenyewe, changua moja (Or cold for themselves, choose one)
Haueleweki, hauweleweki nani, hauweleweki (For now you cannot be understood)
Mipango, mipango imempita Bwana mipango (All the plans have passed the planner)
Anaenda shetani, aombewe (He is headed to the devil, he should be prayed for)
Ah majini, aombewe (To the demons, he should be prayed for)
