I know you have been down and out
You’ve lost hope, felt like givin’ up
I may never understand
What you feel inside your heart

Listen to the voice calling you
I am He who supplies all your needs
I am the lifter of your head
And I am calling you to

Chorus:
Arise! Arise!
From the ashes – the deep darkness
Oh the Lord calls you by name
Arise!

I know you have been talked about
The mistakes you’ve made fill you up with doubt
The thought of your shame and giving up
It shatters the dreams God has given you

Keep your eyes just fixed on Him
For I know the plans I have for your life
You may not seem to understand
But now I am calling you to

(Chorus)

Bridge:
Now it is the time to .?.
Take your rightful place .?.
Stronger than you think
You were born for greatness
Born to, rule and reign
Walk in your authority

(Chorus)

Nimeubeba msalaba wangu (I have carried my cross)
Nikufuate wewe uliyenipenda (To follow You who loved me)
Nimeitua mizigo yangu kwako (I have surrendered my burdens to You)
Nakufuata wewe uliyenipenda (I follow You who loved me)

Chorus:
Bwana unatosha, wanitosha (Lord You are enough, You satisfy me)
Mungu wa agano, wewe wanitosha (God of promises, You satisfy me)

Nasalimu amri yako ee Baba (I surrender to your calling Father)
Sauti yako nimeisikia (I listen to your voice)
Umenivuta Bwana karibu nawe (You have brought me closer to You)
Karibu zaidi, natamani niwe (I desire to be even closer to You)

(Chorus)

Bridge:
We wangu uu sawa, sioni hofu (In you I am safe, I no longer fear)
Wanitosheleza, wanitosha (You satify me, You are enough)
Wengine mie sina, wewe wanitosha (I have no other, for You satisfy me)
Wanitosha, wanitosha (You satisfy me, You satisfy me)

Bhekani kuy’ uYehova; umdala wezinsuku (Give praise to the Lord, the Ancient of Days)
Funani ubuso bakhe, nimkhonze naye (Seek His presence and worship Him)

Uyabonelela uYehova, uBaba wam (The Lord my Father, is generous)

(Sung in Swahili)

Chorus:
Sasa nangoja matokeo (Now I await the results)
Kutoka kwako jalali (From you my almighty God)

Mimi nimefanya mitihani mingi sana (I have sat for many tests)
Nimepitia madarasa mengi sana (I have passed through many lessons)
Kwa kila darasa Yahweh (In each class, my God)
Umekuwa mwalimu wangu (You have been my teacher)
Umenifunza kuomba, umenifunza subira (You taught me to pray, and to be patient)
Umenifunza kungoja Baba (Father You taught me how to wait)
Nimekuwa mwanafunzi mwema kwako Baba (I have been a good student to you Father)

(Chorus)

Usiku mrefu sana, mbona hakupambazuki? (It’s been a long night, where is the dawn?)
Nimejaribu sana kukupendeza maishani mwangu (I have tried to please You in my life)
Nimefanya kazi, hiyo umeona Yesu (I have done Your work, You’ve seen them Jesus)
Nimetoa fungu la kumi hiyo umeona Baba (I have tithed, Father You’ve witnessed )
Nangojea, nangojea matokeo yangu (Now I await my results)
Ulisema nikitoa, nitabarikiwa (For you said that I shall be blessed  when I give)

(Chorus)

Asubuhi ikifika, ije na kicheko (When morning comes, may it bring laughter)
Asubuhi ikifika, ije na amani (When morning comes, let it bring peace)
Asubuhi ikifika, ije na furaha (When morning comes, let it come with joy)
Asubuhi ikifika, ije na jibu langu (When morning comes, may it bring my answer)

(Chorus)
