Sewakhile enhlizweni, umhlobo wam’
(He is built in my heart, my Friend)

Ngoba nguye owangimela

Ngal’ uthando wangifela umhlobo wam’

Uyathwala mthwalo wami, umhlobo wam’
(He carries my burdens, my Friend)
Uthi wongi thwala nam’, umhlobo wam’
(He promises to carry me as well, my friend)

Wayehlatshwa njengemvana
(He was slain like a lamb)
Az’ angenz’ owakh’ umtwana
(To make me his own child)
Yek’ inhlanhla yokwazana nomhlobo wam’
(What a privilege it is to know, my Friend) (Repeat)

Yek’ inhlanhla yokwazan, nomhlobo wam’
(What a privilege it is to know my Friend) (Repeat)

(Languages: English, Swahili)

Nobody loves me like You do
Nobody nowhere, nobody compares
Nobody knows me like You do
Nobody nowhere, nobody compares

Though I stumble and I fall
Your Love surrounds me, Your grace is sufficient
Despite my many faults and failures
Your Love surrounds me, Your Grace is sufficient

Nishike mkono, usiniache (Hold my hands, never let go)
Usiniache, mi ni wako (Never let go, I’m Yours)
(Repeat)

With all my heart, my mind, my soul
I love You, yes I do
With everything I am, I’ll say
I love You, yes I do
With all my mind, my strength, and my song
I love You, Oh yes I do
I will sing it for the world to know
That I love you, yes I know

Hold my hand, never let go
Never let go, I’m Yours (Repeat)

You are my Father
You are my Healer
You are my joy
You are my strength
I’m Your’s, oh I’m Yours

Hold my hand, never let go
Never let go, I’m Yours
