(Sung in Swahili)

Nini kitanitenganisha (na upendo wa Mungu Baba)
(What can separate me, from the Love of God the Father)
Ikiwa ni dhiki au njaa (Havitananitenga naye Baba)
(Neither hardship nor famine, shall separate me from the Father )
Mauti, upanga, na dhihaka (Havitananitenga naye Baba)
(Death, war and danger, will not separate me from the Father)
(Repeat)

Chorus:
Sina hofu sibabaiki (I’m not afraid, not worried)
Kwake yeye nime/nitashinda (I have/shall won/win)
Milele yote nime/nitashinda (Forever I have/will win/won)
Tena zaidi ya kushinda (Even more than win)
Kwake yeye aliyenipenda (In Him who loved me)
(Repeat)

Kwenye zamu yangu nitasimama (When my turn comes I shall stand)
Kwa miguu yangu nitasimama (On my feet I shall stand)
Nione Bwana atakavyonijibu mimi (To see what the Lord shall say to me)
Kwa habari ya kulalamika kwangu (Regarding my persecutions)
Bwana aliniambia neno hili (As the Lord had promised me)
“Usiogope maneno yao (“Do not fear their words,)
Usitetemeke mbele yao, (Do not tremble before them)
usifadhaike mbele yao (Do not despair before them )
Maana imeandikwa, kwa ajili yako ninauawa (As it is written, I was killed for your sake)
kama kondoo wa kuchinjwa, kifo nimehesabiwa (Like a lamb to slaughter, in your death you were counted)
Kifo nimehesabiwa, mimi sibabaiki (In my death I have been counted, I am not worried)

Bridge:
Shetani usinisumbue (Shetani usinisumbue) (Satan, do not bother me)
Wala usinibababishe (Wala usinibababishe) (Do not worry me)
Funga kinywa ukatoweke (Funga kinywa ukatoweke) (Be quiet and begone)
Nyamaza kimya ukapotee (Kwa jina la Yesu ukatoweke) (Be silent and be gone in the name of Jesus)
Nyamaza kimya ukapotee (Nyamaza kimya ukapotee) (Be quiet and begone)

(Chorus)

Milele neno la Mungu limehakikishwa (Forever the word of God has been established)
Tena ni ngome kwa wamwaminio (It is a fortresses to the believers)
Tena ni ngao kwa wamwitao Baba (Also a shield for those who call him Father)
Kabla ijawa misingi ya dunia, (Before the foundation of the world)
Yeye huyu alikuweko (He was here)
(?), muumba wa utukufu ([?], Creator of glory)
Na utakaso wa dhambi, (?) (And the cleansor of sin, (?))
Nami kwake ni wa mwana x2, ni wa mwana (I belong to the son)

(Bridge) + (Chorus)

Asifiwe Mungu wa mapendo (God of love be praised)
Asifiwe Mungu wa huruma (God of mercy be praised)
Asifiwe Mungu wa amani (God of peace be praised)
Asifiwe Mungu wa mapendo (God of love be praised)

Asifiwe Mungu wa mapendo (God of love be praised)
Ametenda maajabu, (He has done amazing things)
dunia ishangilie (Let the world rejoice)
Visiwa(?) vitoe nyimbo, (All islands  give praise)
Asifiwe Mungu wa mapendo (God of love be praised)

Mungua chukua heshima yako (Gpd receive your honor)
Mungu chukua utukufu wako (God receive your praise)

Asifiwe Mungu wa mapendo (God of love be praised)
Ametenda maajabu, (He has done amazing things)
dunia ishangilie (Let the world rejoice)
Visiwa(?) vitoe nyimbo, (All islands  give praise)
Asifiwe Mungu wa mapendo (God of love be praised)
(Repeat)

(Sung in Swahili)

Nakuuliza shetani umepata wapi mamlaka
(I ask you devil, where did you get the permission)
Ya kukamata akili za watu ah! (To mess with people’s minds)
Wewe umeleta balaa umeingia makanisani
(You’ve brought trouble, you have gotten into churches)
Umekamata wababa wanabaka watoto wao
(You have made fathers to rape their children)
Umekamata vijana umewatwika ulevi
(You have caught young men, and saddled them with alcoholism)
Bila kusahau kina mama, vikao vya masengenyo
(Not forgetting mothers, and their gossip)
Sasa nimechoka na mambo yako (I’m tired of your work)
Ewe shetani, nipishe nipite (You Satan, let me pass)

Chorus:
Wewe ulimwasi Mungu, nipishe nipite (You who defied God, let me pass)
Uliwadanganya adamu na Eva, songea nipite
(You deceived Adam and Eve, move and let me pass)
Dunia nzima imeharibika, kwa ujanja wako
(The world is destroyed, for your cunning)
WEwe ulimwasi mungu, nipishe nipite (You who defied God, let me pass)
Uliwadanganya Adamu na Eva, songea nipite
(You deceived Adam and Eve, move and let me pass)
Dunia nzima imeharibika, kwa ujanja wako
(The world is destroyed, for your cunning)
wewe shetani unaambiwa, mwenyeji wa kuzimu (
You Satan you’ve been ordered, the host of hell)
Sasa nipishe nipite (Now let me pass)

Hebu nipishe nipite, ninachelewa njiani (Let me pass, I’m getting late)
Yesu yu karibu kurudi, kulichukua kanisa
(Jesus is almost returning to take his church)
Kanda unayo nionyesha yote yamepitwa na wakati
(Whatever you show me has been passed by time)
Huna ujanja (You can’t fool me)
Kumbuka miaka elfu mbili iliyopita zamani (Remember 2000 years ago)
Yesu aliposhuka kuzimu, akakunyanganya funguo
(When Jesus descended to hell, and took the keys)
Funguo za mamlaka (The keys of authority)
Nasema nimechoshwa na mambo yako (I say I am tired of you)
Wewe shetani nipishe nipite (You devil, let me pass)

(Chorus)

Nakuamuru shetani wewe, nipishe nipite (I order you Satan, let me pass)
Wewe umekuwa ni kikwazo kwangu, Kufika mbinguni
(You have been my barrier to heaven)
Muda wako umeshakwisha, songea nipite (Your time is up, let me pass)
Sasa haleluya naenda mbinguni, hakuna mashaka
(Now Hallelujah I’m going to heaven, no worries) (Repeat)

Wewe ulishaaniwa, laana milele (You have been cursed forever)
Ulinyanganywa mamlaka na Yesu, Huna ujanja ee
(You’re authority was taken by Jesus, you have no more cunning)
Simba wa yuda aliponguruma, mafuriko kuzimu
(When the Lion of Judah roars, there is flood in hell)
Sasa haleluya twaenda mbinguni, hatuna mashaka
(Now hallelujah we are going to heaven, no worries) (Repeat)

(Chorus)
