(Languages: Kinyarwanda, Kirundi, English, Kiswahili)

Burya wari uhari (You were there), when I was wondering
Lost and alone till your right time
I was nobody, before you counted me in
When I needed you the most, nimekuona (I have seen You)
Maisha yangu ni testimony (My life is a testimony)
Kubwira abantu ko wantunze inkoni (Telling people you gave me a chance)
Ntabwo bijya bintera isoni (I am not embarrassed)
Nasema asante (I say thank you)
For all the battles you fought for me
For every broken piece that you fixed
Ndumva umutima wange uganjwe n’amashimwe (My heart overflows with praise)

Pre-Refrain:
Narwanaga intambara zikomeye (I fought hard battles)
Nibwiraga ko nge ubwange nzishoboye (That I thought I could fight by myself)
Ndatsindwa cyane nsanga ari wowe nkeneye (I failed so hard, and find that it is You I need)
None dore uko unyitaho (And look at how you talk care of me)

Refrain:
Daddy God, Daddy God
I thank you for Your affection
All along, you’ve been so, so close in every situation
Daddy God, Daddy God
You dey move in every season
All along, you’ve been so, so close in every situation
No hesitation, nina (I have) protection
Ntabwoba bw’ejo Baba God uri maso (I’m not afraid of tomorrow, Father God You are awake)

When I couldn’t see the way, You made it clear
Baba Mungu (Father God) you took away all my fears
You told me “My child, I dey always here”
Ibyo ndabyumva ngatuza, ngateta nk’umwana uri kwa Papa (I hear this and calm down like a child at His father’s house)
Kubwira amahanga yose ibyo wankoreye (I will tell all the nations what You have done for me)
Ndumva aribyo bya mbere bindyoheye (I feel like this is the first time I’ve tasted it)
Of course, I don’t walk alone, ’cause you lead me on
You never leave your own, you always make me shout “Hallelujah!”

(Pre-Refrain + Refrain)

(Sung in Kinyarwanda)

Igihe, nta ntsinzi (The time, I wasn’t  seeing)
nabonaga imbere yanjye (The victory before me)
Rubasha, yarafoye (The Almighty saw it)
Aramasha ahamya mu kico (Aimed and gave it a fatal blow)
Gutarangwa, byanyujuje (Being slandered, has filled me)
Impamvu nyinshi zo guhimbaza (With many reasons to give praise)

Refrain:
Kuko uwiteka wanjye yafashe (For the Lord took his loveliness)
Igikundiro cye agitegekesha (And adorned me with it)
Icyangiro narimfite mu maso y’abantu (The ugliness I had in people eyes)
Ubwo mbona ngaruye ubuyanja (Was finally relieved)

Refrain 2:
Ibuye ryo kwizera, yampaye (The stone of faith that He has given me)
Ntiryari guhusha Goliyati (Would not miss Goliath)
Ntibyashobokaga ko nangara (It was not possible for me to be ashamed)
Kandi data ari umwami (When my Father is the King) (Repeat)

Yaravuze, ndakira (He has declared, and has walked with me)
Angendesha nemye, mu nzira zigoye (Through challenging paths)
Iherezo ryanjye ku bisi (The end my enemies intended for me)
Arigira itangiriro kuri we (Made it  the beginning for me)
Singikanzwe ukundi kandi (I am not no longer afraid)
Nshagawe n’igitinyiro cye (For I am surrounded by his Glory)

Dore umwanzi abuze uruvugiro (The adversary no longer have a say)
Abambari be bakwiye imishwaro (The conspirators are dispersed)
Intare ya Yuda iranesheje (The Lion of Judah has conquered) (Repeat)

(Refrain + Refrain 2)
