Purchase Album “One Purpose”

(Sung in Zulu)

Kuligugu kimina njalo (It is continually precious to me )
Ukwaz’ ukuthi nginomhlobo (In knowing that I have a friend)
Ongek’ angishiy’ um’ izinsuku zinzima (Who’ll abide with me through hard times)
Ohlal’ ekhona uma ngimdinga ngempela (Who is there when I’m in need)

Refrain:
Umhlobo onguJesu (My friend is Jesus)
Umhlobo onguJesu (My friend is Jesus)

(From the top)

Jesu ungumhlobo wangempela  (Jesus, truly You are my Friend)
Lapho abantu bengijikela (When people turn against me)
Izivunguvungu zizinthlangothi zonke (And trouble overwhelms me)
Lapho izitha zibhodla okwengenyama (When my enemies roar like the lion)
Ziqond’ ukungigwinya (threatening to swallow me)

Uthembisile Jesu (Jesus, You promised)
Uyohlal’ unami njalo nje (That you’ll be with me forever) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Uphi umhlobo onjengaye? (Which other friend is like Him?)
Akajiki uhlal’ ekhona (He is always present)
Uthembekile unothando lwaphakade (I trust His everlasting love)
Thando lwakhe lujulile lubanzi (His love that is deep and wide)

Uthembisile Jesu (Jesus, You promised)
Uyohlal’ unami njalo nje (That you’ll be with me forever) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Uyohlal’ unami njalo nje (That you’ll be with me forever) (Repeat)

Mungu Mkuu (Almighty God) Lyrics by Evelyn Wanjiru

(Sung in Swahili)

Chorus:
Zaidi ya yote (Above it all)
Utabaki kuwa Mungu mkuu (You’ll remain Almighty God)
Alfa na Omega (Alpha and Omega)
Hubadiliki kamwe (You the One that never changes)

Nikitazama nyuma na mbele (Before me and behind me)
Naona ukuu wako (I see your greatness)
Kaskazini, kusini pia (From the north and to the south)
naona ukuu wako (I see your greatness)
Magharibi nako mashariki pia (From the west, to the east)
Naona ukuu wako (I see your greatness)

(Chorus:)

Hakuna mkamilifu katika wanadamu (No one among me is more perfect/complete)
Zaidi ya ewe Mungu wangu (Than You, oh my God)
Kila goti lipigwe, kila ulimi ukiri (Let every knee bow, and every tongue to confess)
Kuwa wewe ni Mungu pekee (That You are God alone)

(Chorus:)

Umenipigania vita vikali (You fought great battles for me)
Ambavyo mimi singeweza pekee yangu (That I could not have fought alone)
Maadui waliniandama (My enemies followed me)
Lakini ukawatawanya kwa njia saba (But You scattered them seven ways)
Usifiwe, uabudiwe (Be praised, be worshiped)

Bridge:
Unabaki kuwa (Mungu tu) (You remain – the only God)

(Sung in Kalenjin)

Chorus:
Kimi rutoito, kimite banda o (We are pilgrims, we are travelling)
Kibendi gaa Jerusalem (We are going home, to Jerusalem)

Ngonyuni Kimite, koma nenyonet (This world is not ours)
Kiwo kochobwech Jeso nenyonet koret (Jesus has gone to prepare us a home)
Asi ole mi, kemi ak echei (So that where He is, we may be also)
Kimite rutoito, kimitei banda o (We are pilgrims, we are on a journey)

(Chorus)

Betusiekap chi ko nwagen eng’ ng’onyuni (The days of man are few on earth)
U sogek che restos, urwet che labati (It is like withering grass, or a passing shadow)
Tos ichobotu kimwa ko bo ile (Do you fight as he commanded?)
Kataruget ne mie, ageni kutwet o (I fight the good fight, I await my crown)

(Chorus)

Ara ongigilgei, onge chechem banda o (So we should carry on,  and press forward)
Amu mi Jeso kobotech agoi kagesuno (For Jesus is with us until the end)
Ogerro nyone Jesu, nam mising’ noto itinye (Look Jesus is coming, hold closely to what you have)
Asi magibenek chi, Utweng’ung’ (That no-one may steal your crown)

(Chorus)

Someone’s knockin’ at the door x2
Can you hear him knockin’? x2
He’s been knockin’ very long
He’s been knockin’ for so long
Can you hear him knockin’? x2

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, He’s at the door x2

Someone’s calling out your name
Calling time and time again

Can you hear Him callin’ x2

He’s been calling very long
He’s been calling for so long

Can you hear Him callin’ x2
He’s been callin’ you

It’s Jesus Jesus Jesus, He’s at the door x2

Don’t let him walk away (Don’t let him walk away)
He’s so patient; but don’t take a chance
All you need to do is open the door
Let Him takebHis rightful place
So He can change your world

Open up the door…
