Moyo, mbona unaumia? Moyo, ukikosa unavyotaka? x2 (Why do you hurt my soul? Whenever you lack what you want?)
Moyo wangu umebeba mengi, mbona unajitesa? (You have carried many things my heart, why do you worry yourself?)
Moyo wangu mengine siwezi, mbona unanitesa? (I cannot do some things my soul, why do you make me suffer?)
Mara maisha, mara mapenzi, moyo unajitesa (Now it is about life, now it is about love, you torture yourself my soul)
Maisha hayo mimi siyawezi, ni Mungu ataniwezesha (I am unable to live that life, it is God who will enable me)
Kila wakati nakupambania, nipate raha (Every time I struggle for you, to get joy)
Na mimi, nipate furaha (For me, to get joy)
Najua unahisia, unasikia moyo, moyo! (I know you feel me, and you hear me my soul)
Refrain:
Moyo, tulia moyo (Be still, my soul)
Roho, utulize moyo (Holy Spirit, calm my soul)(Repeat)
Moyo kuwa na subira, nami niwe salama (Be patient my soul, that I might also be safe)
Kwani una tamaa, sio uvumilivu (For you have desires and not patience)
Nesome emuwe Yesu, wekume mutima wange (Wait upon Jesus my heart)
Kwagala mutima wange (Be patient my heart)
Moyo wangu umebeba mengi, mbona unajitesa? (You have carried many things my heart, why do you worry yourself?)
Moyo wangu mengine siwezi, mbona unanitesa? (I cannot do some things my soul, why do you make me suffer?)
Mara maisha, mara mapenzi, moyo unajitesa (Now it is about life, now it is about love, you torture yourself my soul)
Maisha hayo mimi siyawezi, ni Mungu ataniwezesha (I am unable to live that life, it is God who will enable me)
Marafiki zangu ketini, nina neno kwenu (Sit my friends, I have a word for you)
Wapenzi wangu-marafiki zangu, ketini niwaambie (My loves-my friends, sit and let me tell you)
Mnakumbuka siku moja niliwaambianga? (Do you remember the day that I told you?)
Kuna Jina moja baba na mama wanapenda kuliita (There is a name that my father and mother loved to call)
Wakati wa kulala, kuamka, saa nane za usiku wanalika (In the times of sleep, in raising up and during the middle of the night they call it)
Na mimi siku moja nikaamua, kuungana nao kuliita (And one day I decided, to join them in calling the Name)
Wakipiga magoti chini, na mimi napiga o (When they kneel, I also kneel with them)
Jina hilo ni Yesu, Yesu, Yesu (That name is Jesus, Jesus, Jesus)
Toka na mimi niliite jina hilo (From the time I called that name)
Mambo yangu yamefunguka (My things have opened up)
Toka na mimi niite jina hilo (From the time I called that Name)
Ona sasa napendeza (Look at how I am beautiful)
Yamenikuta mwenzenu, Yamenikuta na mimi (It has arrived to me, it has arrived for me)
Nimekutanana naye, Yesu mwana wa ‘Zareti (I have met Jesus of Nazareth)
Amenipa kicheko zaidi hasara (He has given me delight instead of loss)
Refrain:
Amenichekesha, amenichekesha na mimi (He has given me laughter, He has delighted me)
Amenichekesha, Ndio maana leo naimba (He has given me laughter, that is why I sing today)
Repeat: Refrain
Ona leo nacheka tena (Look at how I laugh again today)
Amenichekesha kwa furaha (He has made me laugh with delight)
Waliocheka kwa dharau sasa (The ones who laughed at me with derision)
Amenichekesha huyu Yesu (He has delighted me, this Jesus)
Amenichekesha na mimi (He has given me laughter)
Mwanadamu, mwanadamu, jamani, hatoshelezi (Human, man, is truly not enought)
Kuna m’dalili (?) wambia: mwanadamu habadiliki (I tell you that a man does not change)
Moyo kama nyama (Their heart is of flesh)
Wameweka vituo vya kuchekeshwa (They have placed fake places of laughter)
Wakikuchekesha unabaki na shida (They make you laugh but your issues remain)
Kirudi nyumbani, machozi utalia, utalia tena (When you return home, you will weep again)
Ila ukikutana na huyu yesu, utacheka daima, (But if you encounter Jesus, you will laugh forever)
Furaha, amani, hayatakatika maishani mwako (Joy, peace, will not depart from your life)
Sarah kasema, “umenifanyizia kicheko” (Sarah said, “He has given me laughter”)
Na mimi nasema, amenivalisha kicheko (And I also say, he has adorned me with laughter)
Repeat: Refrain
Huyu Yesu we (Oh, This Jesus)
Leo nacheka jamani (Look at how I laugh today)
Machozi niliyoyalia siku nyingi amepangusa (He has wiped the tears that I have cried for many days)
Wabaya wangu wanashangaa sana (My detractors have been surprised)
Bridge:
Oh, unalia sana ndugu, mama, baba (Oh, You weep a lot my brother, mother, father)
Kuja kwa Yesu, utacheka tena (Come to Jesus, you will laugh again)
Kitengo ya maisha chekechea (My section of life is still new)
Atakutua, na wewe utacheka (He will remove your burdens, and You will also laugh)
Ona amenichekesha (Look at how He has made me laugh)
Repeat: Refrain
Huyu Yesu we (This Jesus)
Niliyekuwa ombaomba na mimi ninaombwa (The one who was a beggar, I am now a lender)
Niliyekopa mavazi leo nakopeshana (The one who borrowed clothes, today I am a lender)
Amenichekesha kwa baraka, eh (He has delighted me with blessings)
Amenichekesha kwa amani (He has delighted me with peace)
Hajashindwa, kuja na wewe atakuchekesha (He is not unable to also make)
Marafiki zangu, Yesu amenichekesha (My friends, Jesus has given me laughter)
Ndugu zangu, ona Yesu amenichekesha (By brethren, look at how Jesus has given me laughter)
Tangazo, tangazo kwa mapepo na wajumbe wako (Announcement to the devil and his messengers)
Mimi sirudi nyuma kamwe (I will never turn back)
Mmapetuli nao nawapa habari (I have an announcement to the detractors)
Walisema sitasonga, mi nasonga mbele (They said I will be stuck, but I’m pressing on)
Huyu Yesu, ni mwache niende kwa nani? (This Jesus, if I leave Him, where would I go?)
Huyu Yesu, mimi namtazamia juu juu (This Jesus, I will continually look up to Him)
Refrain:
Nasonga mbele, kama mgambo (I’m pressing onward, like a ranger)
Sirudi nyuma, sirudi nyuma kamwe (I do not turn back, never do I turn back)
Nainua macho yangu juu (I lift up my eyes)
Mawazo yangu yote juu (All my thoughts are of on high)
Kila kitu changu chote juu kwake (All my plans are on Him)
Ananipenda! (For He loves me!)
Hivi ni nini kitachonifanya nimwache Mungu (For what can lead me to abandon God?)
Mbele nisiendelee, nigeuke nyuma nimwache? (To stop moving forward, to turn back and leave him?)
Ikiwa ni dhiki, magonjwa, vifungo havitaweza (Neither distress, nor sickness, nor sentencing will make me)
Aliye ndani yangu ni mkuu, ataniwezesha (For the One who lives within me will make me successful)
Hakuhesabu udhaifu wangu (He did not count my weaknesses)
Hakuchukulia tena kwa hasira (He was not angered by me)
Yeye alinibariki bado (He still blessed me)
Hakuwasikiza wal’o leta mashitaka yangu kwake (And did not listen to my accusers)
Kama Ayubu, alitetea bado (Like Job, he defended me)
Yeye Hakimu wa kweli (For He is a just judge)
Hapewi rushwa anajua haki zangu (He cannot be bribed, he knows my rights)
(Refrain)
Sifikirii kushindwa (I do not ponder my defeat)
Sina ndoto ya kuchoka (I do not dream of my exhaustion)
Ataniwezesha (For He will enable me)
Wapo wengi wenye chuki na kero (There are many with hatred and annoyance)
Waliponikera, yeye akapigana (When they troubled me, He fought for me)
Wapo wengi walinipa masaa (There are many that counted my days)
Kwenye wokovu leo wanashangaa (They are now surprised with my salvation)
Kweli kweli alisema, ataandaa meza yangu (Truly He said, He will prepare my table)
Mbele yao maadui, leo wanaboba (Before my enemies, now they are confused)
(Refrain)
Watasubiri wangojee (They will wait and wait)
Watangoja washangae (The will wait and be surprised)
Kwani yeye Bwana (For the Lord)
Atanipeleka juu (Will take me higher)
Nimejua nimefanya mahesabu, nime elewa (I know, I have calculated, I have understood)
Bila wewe Bwana sijiwezi kabisa (That without Lord, I am not able)
Changamoto, panda shuka, miiba njiani (The challenges, the ups and downs and the thorns on my way)
Bila wewe Bwana, siziwezi kabisa (Without You Lord, I am completely unable)
Ndoto zangu, ni wewe utazitimiza Bwana (Lord it is You who would fulfill my dreams)
Maono yangu, ni wewe nategemea Bwana (I depend on You Lord for my visions)
Bila wewe Bwana, nitaaibika kabisa (Without You Lord, I will be shamed)
Oh, Bila wewe, nitashindwa kabisa (Without you, I will fail)
Refrain:
Nina haja na wewe, bila wewe nimeshindwa (I need You, without You I am defeated)
Nimetambua nimejua, bila wewe sina thamani (I know and acknowledge, that without You I have no value)
Thamani yangu ni wewe tu, msaada wangu ni wewe tu (My value is in You, my Helper is You only)
Nishikilie, na mimi mwanao (Hold me, Your child)(Repeat)

Kwa wanyama wewe ni Simba wa Yuda (You are the Lion of Judah)
(Refrain)
Nina maswali mengi akilini sipati jibu (I have many unanswered questions)
Uoga mkubwa, moyo unapiga mwendo wa kasi (I am afraid, my heart races)
Ila niende wapi? Bila wewe siwezi (But where would I go without You?)
Ukiniacha, nitajivunia tena nani? (If you leave me, in whom would I boast?)
Wewe ndiwe kiburi yangu, wewe ndiye thamani yangu (You are my pride and worth)
Najaribu kukusanya kwa uwezo wangu wa kukidhi mahitaji (I have tried to collect all that will satisfy my needs)
Nimetambua, vyote duniani havimalizi kiu yangu (And have realized all wordly things will not satisfy my thirst)
Ni wewe tu Bwana, ninakuhitaji (Only you my Lord, I need You)
Repeat: Nakuhitaji (I need You)
Kwenye masomo (In my studies)
Kwenye biashara zote (In all business)
Kwenye familia na jamii (In my family and relatives)
Kwenye maono yangu (In my visions)
Siwezi bila wewe, nakuhitaji (I cannot without You, I need You)
Maishani mwangu (In my life)
Kwenye ndoto zangu (In my dreams)
Nakuhitaji Bwana (I need You Lord)
Maana wewe unaweza (For you are able)
