(Languages: Kiswahili, English)

Nimeomba sana kwa siri (I prayed a lot in secret)
Machozi mengi sirini (A lot of tears were shed in secret)
Leo umekuja hadharani (Today You have come in public)
Umenijibu kwa ujasiri (You have answered in courage)
Nililia sana sirini (I wept a lot in secret)
Nikiwa mi na wewe pekee yetu (When I was alone with You)
Leo umekuja hadharani (Today You have come in public)
Umenijibu kwa ujasiri (You have answered me in courage)

Pre-Refrain:
Siwezi kusimulia (I cannot describe)
This far You have brought me
This is all for Your Grace (Repeat)

Refrain:
Mungu wangu! Mungu wangu! (My God! My God!)
Nimerudi kushukuru, Mungu wangu (I have come back to give You thanks, my God) (Repeat)

Prayers we made in tears, you didn’t despise
Lord we’ve come in public to testify (Repeat)

(Pre-Refrain + Refrain)

Repeat: Refrain
Umeendelea kutukutanisha siku hadi siku (You have reconciled us day by day)
Umeendelea kujibu hili, na lile, na lile (You have continued to answer this and that and that)
Umeendelea kuachilia majina mapya (You have continued to give us new names)
Umeendelea kuachilia kimo na maarifa (You have continued to release stature and knowledge)
Umeendelea kupanua huduma yetu, Baba (Father, You have continued to expand our ministries)
Umeendelea kulinda watoto wetu, Mfalme (King, You have continued to protect our children)
Tulivyo safiri, tulisafiri salama (However we travelled, we traveled safely)
Tulivyo tembea hatukuanguka barabarani (How we walked, we did not fall by the wayside)
Nimerudi kushukuru (I have come back to thank You)
Pokea heshima na utukufu wote (Receive all the honor and glory)
Maana …?
Wala …?
Kwani unafikiri hii ni pumzi yangu, Bwana? (Do you think this breath is mine, Lord?)
Hata pumzi kwenye mapafu ni wewe Bana (Even the breadth in my lungs is from You)
Sikia ibaada yangu (Listen to my worship)

Umekuwa nami, umetembea nami
(You have been with me, You have walked with me)
Nimerudi kushukuru, Mungu wangu
(I have come back to give You thanks, my God) (Repeat)

– in Zulu
Ubunami, uhambe nami (You have been with me and walked with me)
Nkosi yami (My God) (Repeat)

You have been with me
You have walked with me
Nkosi yami (My God) (Repeat)

Mungu wangu! Mungu wangu! (My God! My God!)
Niko hapa kushukuru, Mungu wangu (I am here to give You thanks, my God) (Repeat)

Umekuwa nami, umetembea nami
(You have been with me, You have walked with me)
Niko hapa kushukuru, Mungu wangu
(I am here to give You thanks, my God) (Repeat)

Holy Spirit You are my lord
You’re my Teacher and my friend
And I love You–but I know
You love me more than I can love you (Repeat)

Before I knew You
You loved me, Lord
Before my first breath
You died for me
I love you but I know
You love me more than I can love You (Repeat)

I love you but I know
You love me more than I can love you

(Sung in Kiswahili)

Kutakuwa milima haitaondolewa (There will be mountains that will not be removed)
Kutakuwa na mito, na sitaweza kuvuka (There will be rivers I cannot cross)
Sio kila ombi, litajibiwa nipendavyo (It is not all prayers, that will be answered as I ask)
Sio kila wimbo, utakaotuliza moyo (Not every song, will calm my spirit)

Nimekupata, nina mtetezi (I have found You, I have an Advocate)
Unionyeshe, njia zako (Show me Your Ways)
Nikujue (That I may know You)

Refrain:
Ikiwa nimepata neema kwako, unikumbuke (If I have found favor in Your eyes, remember me)
Jicho lako liwe juu yangu nyakati zote (Your eye to be on me all the time)
Wema wako unisindikize, hadi tamati (Your Goodness escort me, until the end)
Hili ni ombi langu, nakumwagia moyo (This is my prayer, I pour my heart to You)
N’nachoomba kaa nami, ikiwa nimepata neema kwako
(I pray that you abide with me, if I have found Grace before You)

(From the Top)

Kumbuka hayo mema niwaombeayo, wanaonifurahia (Remember the good I pray for those who rejoice with me)
Maadui zangu nao, uwape kukujua (And to my enemies, let them know You)
Uwabariki kwa utele, uwanyeshee mvua (Bless them to overflowing, pour Your rain on them)
Yamkini watapata kuona, wapumue upendo (So that they may see you, and breathe love)
Tunaoshiriki hii huduma, uwape uamsho
(The ones we serve in this ministry, grant them Your revival)
Uwabariki kwa utele, Baba wala isishie
(Bless them to overflowing, Father–that it would be forever)
Tunaoshiriki hii huduma, uwape uamsho
(The ones we serve in this ministry, grant them Your revival)
Uwabariki kwa utele, Baba wala isishie
(Bless them to overflowing, Father–that it would be forever)(Repeat)

(Refrain)

Kwa maswali na majibu (In times of questions and answers)
Umasikini utajiri (In poverty and riches)
Usumbufu utulivu (In troubles and peaceful times)
Ewe Mwokozi kaa nami! (Oh Savior, abide with me!)
Kwa kupanda kwa kushuka (In rising and falling)
Habari za kuvunja moyo (In heartbreaking news)
Kwa uzushi na uongo (In heresies and lies)
Ewe Mwokozi kaa nami! (Oh Savior, abide with me!) (Repeat)

(Refrain)
