(Sung in Swahili)

Refrain:
Nitetee Mungu, nitetee Baba (Defend me God, Father defend me)
Nitetee Mungu wangu, Bwana (Advocate for me my Lord God) (Repeat)

Nitetee Mungu wangu (Defend me my God) x4
Nakuomba Mungu (I pray to You, God)

Safari yangu imejaa vikwazo (My journey is full of troubles)
Safari yangu ina vita kubwa (My journey is full of great war) (Repeat)

Bila wewe Mungu, sitafika (Without You God, I will not arrive)
Bila wewe Bwana, sitafanya chochote (Without You Lord, I will not do anything)

Nitetee Mungu wangu (Defend me, my God)
Nitetetee, Baba (Father advocate for me)
Oh nakuomba Mungu wangu (Oh I pray to You, My God) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Adui zangu wamenitegea, mitego mibaya (My enemies have set a trap for me)
Lengo lao kwangu, wanataka waniangamize (Their aim is to destroy me) (Repeat)

Nitetee Mungu, Nitetee (Defend me God, Advocate for me)
Nitetee, Bwana, pigana nao (Defend me, Lord, fight with them) (Repeat)

Matamanio yao kwangu, sio mazuri (Their desires for me are not good)
Mawazo yao, sio mazuri (Their thoughts are not good)
Mipango yaoi kwangu, sio mizuri (Their plans for me are not good)
Wananitazama kwa macho mabaya (They look at me with ill intentions)
Nitetee Mungu wangu (Advocate for me, My God)
Nitetee Bwana wangu, nakuomba Mungu (Defend me, My Lord, I pray to You God)

(Refrain)

Nimesikia mingongono, ya adui zangu (I have heard the whispers of my enemies)
Wengi wanasema, tuone atafika wapi (Saying, ‘let us see how far he goes’)
Nimesikia mingongono, ya adui zangu (I have heard the whispers of my enemies)
Wengi wanasema, tuone atafanya nini? (Sating ‘let us see what he will do’)
Fanya kitu Bwana, wajue (Do something Lord, that they may know)
Fanya kitu Bwana, wakutambue (Do something Lord, that they may know You)
Dhibitika mbele yao, wajue (Confirm yourself before them, that they may know) x2
Pigana nao, Bwana – Wajue (Fight with them, Lord – that they may know)
Nenda mbele yangu, Bwana (Go before me, Lord)
Nenda mbele yangu, nitetee (Go before me, and defend me)
Nitetee Mungu wangu (Defend me, My God)

(Refrain)

(Languages: English, Swahili)

As the world looks upon me, as I struggle alone
They say I have nothing, but they are so wrong
In my heart, I’m rejoicing: How I wish they could see!
Thank You Lord, for Your blessings on me

There’s a roof up above me: I have a good place to sleep
There’s food on my table, shoes on my feet
You gave me Your Love Lord, and a fine family
Thank You Lord, For Your blessings on me

Najua mimi si tajiri, na nguo zangu sio mpya
(I know I am not rich, and my clothes are not new)
Sina pesa nyingi sana, lakini nina Yesu
(I do not have a lot of money, but I have Jesus)
Hili ndilo la muhimu, japo hawatatambua
(This is what is important, but they don’t know this yet)
Asante Bwana, kwa mibaraka yako
(Thank you Lord, for Your Blessings)

Nina sehemu nzuri ya kuishi, na kulala vizuri
(I have a good space to live, and to sleep well)
Chakula mezani kwangu, na viatu miguuni
(There is food on my table, and shoes on my feet)
Umenipa uzima, na familia nzuri
(You have granted me life and a good family)
Asante Bwana, kwa mibaraka yako
(Thank you Lord, for Your Blessings)

Umenipa uzima, na familia nzuri
(You have granted me life and a good family)
Asante Bwana, kwa mibaraka yako
(Thank you Lord, for Your Blessings)

(Sung in Swahili)

Tunaishi kwa nguvu ya Mungu, Ye ndo katuweka hapa
(We live by God’s Power, He placed us here)
Kila hatua tunapitia, ye ndiye mlinzi wetu
(He guards all the steps we take)
Asubuhi ifikapo, hujua siku itaenda vipi
(When morning comes, he knows how the day will go)
Je n’tavuka salama, mchana jioni hata usiku
(Will I cross safely the, morning, evening and night?)
Kwa dakika,sekunde hujua siku itaenda vipi
(By minutes and seconds, he knows how the day will go)
Kupata na kokosa, ajua mimi n’tapata nini
(Receiving and Losing, He knows what I will get)
Kulala, kuamka, ajua mi n’taamka vipi
(Sleeping, and rising, he knows how I will wake)
Maisha yetu yote, Mungu ndiye anazo siri zetu
(The Lord knows the secret of all our lives)

Refrain:
We ni Mungu wangu, sikuachi tena
(You are my God, I will not leave You again)
Nikuwepo leo ni rehema zako zaniwezesha
(Me being here today, is through Your Mercies)
Sina haki mimi, kujisifu tena
(I do not have the right to boast of myself)
Kwani bila wewe hakika mimi singekuwa hivi
(For Without You, truly I would not be this way) (Repeat)

Mwanga wangu wa njia na nyota katika maisha yangu
(The Light to my path and the Star in my life)
Ye ni Mungu wa nuru, ushindi hata vitu vyote vyake
(He is the God of light, victory and all things are His)
Upatacho shukuru, ni Mungu ndiye kakuweka hapo
(Be thankful for what you get, it is God who placed you there)
Usisahau kumtumikia bado ungali hai
(Do not forget to serve Him, while you are still alive)

Kumbuka kuna siku utadaiwa kwa matendo yako
(Remember there is a day you will give account for your actions)
Iwe jema, kwa baya, watu pia umewatenda vipi?
(For good or for ill, How have you treated others?)
Je wazitumiaje baraka ulizopewa na Mungu?
(How are you using the blessings you were given by God?)
Suluhisho pekee, ni Mungu tumpe maisha yetu
(The only solution, is to give God our lives)

(Refrain)

(Sung in Swahili)

Na wala sio sababu ya jina langu (It is not because of my name)
Wala sio sababu ninavaa (Neither is it because of how I dress)
Najua sio sababu ya sadaka zangu (I know it is not because of my offerings)
Oh, maana ndio ninashangaa (Oh, that is why I am amazed)
Nilijua kwamba nimeshapoteza nafasi (I knew I had lost my space)
Mimi ni nani kwani? Nakosa neno kusema (For who am I? I am lost for words)
Unisamehe, sikujua unanipenda hivi (Forgive me, I did not know you loved me thus)
Umefanya bure, sawa upendavyo (You have made it free, according to your will)
Umeruhusu niwe, vile upendavyo (You have permitted me to be, the way you will it)

Refrain:
Nitakushukuru tu, kwa neema (I will thank You, for the Grace)
Asante tu, kwa wema (Thank you, for the Goodness) (Repeat)
Maana kama si wewe (For if it was not for You)
Kama si wewe ningekuwa wapi? (If not for You, where would I be?) (Repeat)
Wacha machozi yanitirike tu (Let my tears fall)
Wacha kilio nikulilie Mungu (Let my cry be to You, Lord)

Natafuta cha kunitenga nawe, bado sijaona (I have yet to find what could separate us)
Nilishakatwakatwa moyo na kupondwa na wanadamu (I have been heart broken by people)
Wao wataniambia nini, nikiwa nawe? (But what can they tell me, if I am with You?)
Leo wataniambia nini, nikiwa nawe? (what can they tell me today, if I am with You?)
Pesa huitwa sabuni, ila maji ni wewe (Money is called the soap, but You are the water)
Unioshe Bwana, nitakase (Wash me Lord, cleanse me)

(Refrain)

(Sung in Swahili)

Nitayainua macho yangu nitazame, milima
(I will lift up my hills to the mountains)
Msaada wangu utatoka wapi?
(Where my does my help come from?)
Msaada wangu ni katika wewe (My help is in You)
Usiyeacha nipotee (Who will not let me go astray)
Chini ya msalaba wako (Beneath Your Cross) (Repeat)

Refrain:
Hata hili litapita (This too shall pass)
Kama yale yalivyopita (As the other ones passed)
Chini ya msalaba wako (Beneath Your Cross) (Repeat)

Chini ya uvuli wako najisitiri (I hide myself under your shadow)
Mbali nazo shida za maisha (Far away from life’s troubles)
Nifunike na Pendo Lako (Cover me with Your Love)
Chini ya msalaba wako (Beneath Your Cross) (Repeat)

(Refrain)
