(Sung in Swahili)

Usikae mbali nami Bwana (Do not stay away from me Lord)
Hawa adui wamepanga njama (For my enemies plan against me)
Wanasema, “Mungu amemuacha (Saying “God has abandoned him/her)
Mfateni, mkatameni, hakuna wa kumuokoa”
(Follow her, detain her, for there is no on that can rescue her”)

Refrain:
We ni tegemeo langu (You are my Support)
We ni usalama langu (You are my Refuge)
Baba usiniache niaibike (Father do not let me be ashamed)
Nifiche, niokoe (Hide me, and save me)
We ni tegemeo langu (You are my support)
We ni usalama langu (You are my safe place)
Tegemeo langu, tegemeo langu (My pillar, my support)

Uhimidiwe, Bwana wa mabwana (Be praised, Lord of lords)
Neno lako halo hili Baba ni la ukweli (For Your Word, Father is the truth)
Mfalme wa wafalme (King of kings)
Nayaamini, yote usemayo (I believe all that You say)
Neno lako hili Baba ni la kweli (For Your word Father, is the Truth)
Mfalme wa wafalme (King of kings) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Oh we o…

Tegemeo, we ni tegemo langu (My pillar, You are my support)
Tegemeo, we ni tegemo langu (My pillar, You are  my support)
Usiniache niabike (Do not let me be ashamed)
Nifiche, niokoe (Hide me, and save me)
Tegemeo, we ni tegemo langu (My pillar, You are my support)
Tegemeo, we ni tegemo langu(My pillar, You are my support)

(Refrain)

Siogopi kuchelewa (I’m not afraid of being late)
Sababu Mungu wangu hachelewi, wala hawai
(Because God does not delay, nor does he ever)
Siogopi mateso yangu (I’m not afraid of my tribulations)
Sababu ye ananipeleka, kwenye ukuu wangu
(For He is taking me to my greatness)
Siogopi kudharauliwa (I’m not afraid of being despised)
Maana ndiko kunakonipa heshima yangu
(Because there is where I receive my honor)
Siogopi adui zangu (I’m not afraid of my enemies)
Maana najua ni adui wa Mungu wangu
(For I know that they are the enemies of my God)
Siogopi hivi vita vyangu (I’m not afraid of my battles)
Maana ndivyo vinaivyonipa ushindi wangu
(For they are they that will bring me my victory)

Siogopi, Siogopi! (I’m not afraid)
Siogopi, Siogopi! (I’m not afraid)

Nimepewa mamlaka (I have been given authority)
Siogopi nge na nyoka (I’m not afraid of the scorpion or the snake)
N’tawakanyaka vichwa vyao (I shall crush their heads)
Haitanidhuru sumu zao, yaani maneno yao (Their poison will not harm me, meaning their words)
Siogopi kutembea kwenye giza (I’m not afraid of walking in the darkness)
Maana mi ni nuru ninaangaza (For I am the light that lights the way)
Siogopi kusimama juu ya mlima (I’m not afraid if standing on the hill)
Maana najua siwezi sitirika (For I know I shall not be hidden)
Siogopi moto, moto sababu (I am not afraid of the fiery fire, because)
Sababu, lazima nipite mimi dhahabu (I have to pass through to be refined as gold)
Ili nisimame, niwe imara, niwe kinara (So that I can stand, firmly, to be a rock)
Siogopi moto, moto sababu (I’m not afraid of the fiery fire, because)
Sababu, lazima nipite mimi dhahabu  (I have to pass through to be refined as gold)
Niwe hodari, niwe jasiri, niwe kamili! (To be strong, to be brave, to be complete!)
