(Sung in Kiswahili)
Yale uliyonitendea (What You have done for me)
Siwezi kuelezea (I cannot explain it)
Ni mengi, ni mengi (They are many, they are many)
Siwezi kuelezea (I cannot describe it) (Repeat)
Hulali kwa ajili yangu (You do not sleep, for my sake)
Husinzii kwa ajili yangu (You do not slumber, for my sake)
Huchoki kwa ajili yangu (You never tire, for my sake)
Siwezi kuelezea (I cannot describe it) (Repeat)

Swahili Gospel Lyrics, Tanzania Godwill Babette, Yote ni Maajabu, Yote ni Maajabu Lyrics Leave a comment
Refrain:
Bwana, kumbe ile siku ulisema ndio leo
(Lord, the day You promised has arrived)
Bwana, kumbe ile siku niliomba ndiyo leo
(Lord, the day I prayed for has arrived) (Repeat)
Ona yale umeyatenda
(Look at what You have done)
Ona yale umeyafanya
(Look at what You have accomplished) (Repeat)
(From the Top)
Nilipoomba ulisema, utaijibu kwa wakati wako
(When I prayed You sad You will respond in Your time)
Baba kumbe ndio leo (Father, I realize today is the day)
Na ulisema ukifanya, ulisema itakuwa kama ndoto
(You said when You do it, it will be like a dream)
Kumbe ndio leo (Today is that day)
Nilipoomba ulisema, utaifanya kwa wakati wako
(When I prayed, You said You will do it in Your time)
Kumbe ndio leo (Today is the day)
Nilipolia ulisema, utakuja kwa wakati mwema
(When I cried, You said You will come in good time)
Kumbe siku hiyo ndio leo (Today is that day)
(Refrain)
Na haya yote ni maajabu (And all these are a wonder)
Yote ni maajabu (All these are miracles)
Yote ni maajabu (All these are wonders)
Baba hapa unashangiliwaje? (Father, how do You desire to be praised?)
Vigelele unataka vya kutoshanaje? (What size of shouts of Joy do You desire)
Nikupe! (That I may give You) (Repeat)

Swahili Gospel Lyrics, Tanzania Lead Me, Lead Me Lyrics, Macho Yangu Ni Ya Nyama, Melanie Anthony, Moses Luka, Unapendeza Si Rahisi Leave a comment
(Languages: Kiswahili, English)
Macho yangu ni ya nyama (My eyes are of flesh)
Haioni kesho, yanaona tu sasa (They do not see tomorrow, only now)
Ee Bwana nakuomba nipe mwanga (Oh Lord, I ask You that You give me the light)
Nisije kajikwaa kwenye hii giza (That I may not stumble in this darkness)
Dunia sio sehemu salama (The world is not a safe place)
Hujui nani ni nani na nani anataka nini (You do not know who people are or what they desire)
Nd’o maana nakuweka Mungu kwanza (That is why I put You God first)
Akili na nafsi na roho (My mind, my soul, and my spirit)
Navikupa umiliki (I surrender them to You)
Kukupendeza si rahisi, Oh God (Pleasing You is not easy, O God)
Naomba nyingine nafasi, mara moja (I pray for another chance)
Maisha ni njia nyembamba (Life is a narrow path)
Pour out Your Spirit on me
Nitafuata lile usemalo (I will follow what You command )
Refrain:
Niongoze, niongoze (Lead me, guide me)
Bila wewe mi kweli siwezi fanya lolote (Without You, I can do nothing)
Baba niongoze, niongoze (Father lead me and guide me)
Bila wewe mi kweli siwezi (Without you I will be lost)
So I pray that You
Lead me, lead me, lead me on
Lead me on (Repeat)
Bila we mi nitaanguka (Without You, I will fall)
Ni siri yako kama kesho n’taamka (Only You know if I’ll wake tomorrow)
Ninajiuliza je ukiniacha (I ask myself, if You were to leave me)
N’takuwa mgeni wa nani kwenye hii dunia? (Who will I belong to in this world?)
Ndio maana nakuweka Mungu kwanza (That is why I put You God first)
Over all, take a lead, I’mma follow
What You need
Huko nilikotoka walinitreat vibaya (Where I came from, I was treated badly)
They give something for something
Sina matamanio tena ya kurudi nyuma (I have no desire to go back)
I promise, I’ll be a good kid (Repeat)
(Refrain)
So/Lord I pray that You
Lead me, lead me, lead me on
Lead me on (Repeat)
Macho yangu ni ya nyama (My eyes are of flesh)
Haioni kesho, yanaona tu sasa (They do not see tomorrow, only now)
Ee Bwana nakuomba nipe mwanga (Oh Lord, I ask You that You give me the light)
Nisije kajikwaa kwenye hii giza (That I may not stumble in this darkness)
