God of Heavens, Lord of the earth
Nothing’s too hard for You to do
Alpha Omega, Beginning and the end
All of the creation, cries out Your Name (Re)
Refrain:
You are Amazing God
Bo ji Nyɔŋmɔ, ofe fɛɛ (You’re God, You are Sovereign)
You’re Amazing God
Bo ji Nyɔŋmɔ ofe fɛɛ (You’re God, You are Sovereign) (Repeat)
Awesome Wonder, Lord of creation
You made the mountains, valleys and seas
Seasons and times, creatures great and small
You made them all by the Power of Your Word (Repeat)
Bridge:
You’re Amazing, Amazing!
Amazing, Amazing! x?
You’re Amazing God
Bo ji Nyɔŋmɔ, ofe fɛɛ (You’re God, You are Sovereign)
You’re Amazing God
Bo ji Nyɔŋmɔ ofe fɛɛ (You’re God, You are Sovereign)
Drolɔ Kpakpa ji bo (You’re the Gracious One)
Ofe fɛɛ (You’re Sovereign)
Bo ji Nyɔŋmɔ, ofe fɛɛ (You’re God, You are Sovereign)
Refrain:
Great is the Lord, Exalted on High
He is greatly to be praised
Great is the Lord, Exalted on High
He is greatly to be praised
I could have been dead, sleeping in the grave
But He came and saved and made me whole
(So) With my whole heart I’ll praise His Name
For all the great things He’s done for me
You see, once I was lost, deep in sin
Never thought I could live again
I was blinded by the enemy
And his false promises for me
But then Jesus found me, saved me, cleansed me
Washed me, whiter than the snow!
Now I know what true love is
For He gave His life for me
And for the rest of my life, I’ll serve Him
The rest of my life, I’ll serve Him
Proclaiming His greatness to the world
(Refrain)
I could have been dead, sleeping in the grave
But He came and saved and made me whole
With my whole heart I’ll praise His Name
For all the great things He’s done for me (Repeat)
I had to see if I’m better than You
I’m so proud and I don’t feel bad for the things that I do
And I know that You know that in You
That for all have sinned, and fallen short of your Glory
I knew I should have stayed right here
But I was selfish and thought I had a great idea
Now I’m pleading, forgive me
‘Cause I fear I may go to hell
You know I am trying, Oh Lord I am trying
I Wanna be holy to You
Refrain:
I know you know I don’t deserve Heaven
But Lord I, need a very holy endin’
For my soul, for my soul
‘Cause if I die today and I don’t wake up
Supposin’ I die today and I don’t wake up
Will I go to Heaven? Heaven
Will I go to Heaven? Heaven
Will I go to Heaven? Heaven
Heaven, Heaven
I barely go to church
I barely say my prayers
But I’m always having fun
I’m working for the paper
The world is changing
The world is changing, no no no no
Now nobody have no time to renew souls
But everybody wanna have a brand new phone
We spend more time on the internet
And we spend a very little time with the Bible
When I think of this I cry
‘Cause I know one day we will die
Oh no no no..
We will abide in You, Lord
Hide in You Lord, Rest in You Lord
Rest in You
Teach us to wait on You
Draw strength from You, Lord
Rest in You Lord, Rest in You Lord

Mvini owonawona (True Vine)x?
True God, You are the true Vine
Sizohlala Kuwe (We will abide in You)
Sizozifihla Kuwe (We will hide in You)
Sizohlala Kuwe (We will abide in You)
Sizozifihla Kuwe (We will hide in You) (Repeat)
Usiku mtakatifu, nyota zameremermeta (Oh Holy night, the stars are brightly shining)
Ni usiku wa kuzawa mwokozi (It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth)
Dunia yote, kwa dhambi ilizama (Long lay the world in sin and error pining)
Hadi Yesu kaja kutuokoa (Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth)
Tunaiingia ya kusisimua kote (A thrill of hope – the weary world rejoices)
Utukufu wake wachomoza
Tumsujudu, sikia malaika (Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices)
Usiku mkuu, wa kuzaliwa Yesu Kristo (O night divine, O night when Christ was born)
Usiku mkuu, usiku mtakatifu (O night, O holy night, O night divine!)
Kweli ametufunza sote kupendana (Truly He taught us to love one another)
Injili yake ni amani (His gospel is peace)
Minyororo yote ya utumwa imevunjwa (Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother)
Kwa jina lake tutapata uhuru (And in His name all oppression shall cease)
Tenzi tamu wa pamoja twainua (Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we)
Tumsifu kwa roho zetu zote (Let all within us praise His holy name)
Yesu ni Bwana, milele tumsifu (Christ is the Lord! O praise His Name forever)
Tutangaze uweza na utukufu wake (His Power and Glory evermore proclaim)
Tutangaze uweza na utukufu wake (His Power and Glory evermore proclaim)
Tumsujudu, sikia malaika (Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices)
Usiku mkuu, wa kuzaliwa Yesu Kristo (O night divine, O night when Christ was born)
Usiku mkuu, usiku mtakatifu (O night, O holy night, O night divine!)
