Happy New Year!

I wanted to share the 2025 most searched lyrics from AfricanGospelLyrics.com (which turned 15 years in October 2025!). For the first time in a long time, the most searched lyrics involved songs released in the same year. Going through the list reminded me of Luke 11. The lyrics searched related to either approaching God as a friend (Luke 11: 5-8) with “claiming” as a theme–see Oyor’s “Favor song” and Orenze’s “Too Oiled”; or approaching God as a Father (Luke 11:11-13) the theme “surrender” like the “River of Cleansing” Hymn by Sarakiya and “Yebo” by Vestine and Dorcas.

I hope that the most searched lyrics in 2026 will be of Thanksgiving for directed paths and answered prayers. πŸ™‚

Here are the most searched lyrics in reverse order (You can click the links to view the lyrics and sing along):

Moyo Wangu (My Heart) Lyrics by Msanii Music Group

June 22, 2025

Rain Kenya, Swahili Gospel Lyrics , , Leave a comment


(Sung in Kiswahili)

Moyo huwa mdanganyifu kuliko vitu vyote (The heart is the most deceitful thing)
Una ugonjwa wa kufisha, moyo (It has a destructive disease, the heart)
Ni nani awezaye, kuuchunguza moyo? (Who can examine the heart?)
Ulinde moyo wako, usikupotoshe wewe (Guard Your heart that it may not deceive you)
Na hapo ndipo zitokapo chemichemi za uzima kwa mwanadamu
(That is where the source of human life originates)
Yaani moyo ndiyo chanzo za maisha yako yote, ukumbuke (Remember your heart is the origin of your life)
Linda moyo wako, nawe utaishi (Guard your heart, and you will live)

Moyo, moyo wangu (Heart, my heart)
(Kazi yako, kumbuka moyo) (Remember your duty, my heart)
Kazi yako ni kumtukuza Mungu (Your duty is to glorify God)
(Achana na dunia) (Forget the world)
Uachane na mahangaiko ya ulimwengu (Forget the world’s troubles)
(Uwaze ya mbinguni) (Remember what is of heaven)
Uwaze mambo ya uzima wa milele (Think of eternal things)
Moyo wangu tulia (Tulia moyo, moyo wangu) (Be still my heart) (Repeat)

Bwana naomba, moyo wangu ufanyie marekebisho (Lord I pray to mend my heart)
Bwana naomba, moyo wangu fanyie ukarabati (Lord I pray that you woud repair my heart)
Ondoa jiwe, weka nyama, moyo utulie (Replace the stone with meat, that my heart be at )
Nifuate yale uliyonikusudia niyafanye (To follow what You had purposed for me)
Nisije nikahangaika na mambo yasiyo nihusu (That I may not be distracted with things that don’t concern me)

Moyo, moyo wangu (Heart, my heart)
(Kazi yako, sikia moyo/ni gani moyo/ni nini moyo?) (Remember your duty, my heart)
Kazi yako ni kumtukuza Mungu (Your duty is to glorify God)
(Achana na mambo ya dunia/Uachane na dunia) (Forget the world)
Uachane na mahangaiko ya ulimwengu (Forget the world’s troubles)
(Uwaze ya uzima, moyo/Uyawaze mema/Moyo utulie) (Remember what is of heaven)
Uwaze mambo ya uzima wa milele (Think of eternal things)
Moyo wangu tulia (Sikia moyo, moyo wangu) (Be still my heart) (Repeat)

Tulia, tulia (Be still, be still) x2
Tulia, tulia moyo (Be still, by still my heart)

Moyo, moyo wangu (Heart, my heart)
Kazi yako ni kumtukuza Mungu (Your duty is to praise God)
Uachane na mahangaiko ya ulimwengu (Forget the worries of this world)
Uwaze mambo ya uzima wa milele (Think of eternal things)
Moyo wangu tulia (Be still, my heart)Β  (Repeat)
