(Sung in Swahili)

Refrain:
Hakuna silaha yoyote (No Weapon)
Iliyotumwa kinyume chetu (Forged against us)
Itakayofaulu (Shall prosper) (Repeat)

Silaha yoyote itakayotumwa (Any weapon sent)
Kwa njia moja au nyingine (In one way or another)
Itawanywishwa kwa njia saba (Will be scatteredĀ  in seven directions)
Haitafaulu (It shall not prosper)(Repeat)

(Refrain)

Maneno maovu Yaliyonennwa (Curses that were said)
Na walio hai na walio kufa (By the living or the dead)
Chini ya maji na nchi kavu (Under water or dry land)
Haitafaulu (Will not prosper)(Repeat)

(Refrain)

Refrain: Hakuna x3 itakayofaulu (None that will prosper)
Neno la Mungu linasema hakuna, (The word of God says that no)
Uchawi/mapepo/uganga/ushirikina (witchcraft/demons/charms/divination)
Itakayo faulu (That will prosper)
Usiogope, simama na neno la Mungu (Don’t fear, stand in God’s word)

(Refrain)

(Sung in Swahili)

Kuna jambo linalonifurahisha (One thing gives me joy)
Kujua ya kwamba kuna mmoja anipendaye (Knowing that there’s one that loves me)
Siyo kwa mema nitendayo bali huruma zake (Not for my good deeds, but by His mercies)
Kwa kweli mimi najua ananipenda (I know that He loves me)
(Repeat)

Ananipenda (He loves me) x4
Nina furaha kwa kuwa ananipenda (I am joyful for He loves me)
Ooooooh, ananipenda (Oh, He loves me)
(Repeat)

(Sung in Swahili)

Version 2: by Enid Moraa (YouTube)

Mbeleni naendelea, (Iā€™m pressing on the upward way)
Ninazidi kutembea (New heights Iā€™m gaining every day)
Mombi uyasikie (Still praying as Iā€™m onward bound)
Ee Bwana unipandishe (Lord, plant my feet on higher ground)

Ee Bwana uniinue (Lord, lift me up and let me stand)
Kwa imani nisimame (By faith, on Heavenā€™s table land)
Nipande milima yote (A higher plane than I have found)
Ee Bwana unipandishe (Lord, plant my feet on higher ground)

Sina tamaa ni nikae (My heart has no desire to stay)
Mahali pa shaka kamwe (Where doubts arise and fears dismay)
Hapo wengi wanakaa (Though some may dwell where those abound)
Kuendelea naomba (My prayer, my aim, is higher ground)

Nisikae duniani (I want to live above the world)
Ni mahali pa shetani (Though Satanā€™s darts at me are hurled)
Natazamia mbiguni (For faith has caught the joyful sound)
Nitafika kwa imani (The song of saints on higher ground)

(Chorus)

Nataka nipandishwe juu (I want to scale the utmost height)
Zaidi ya ee mawingu (And catch a gleam of glory bright)
Nitaomba nisikize (But still Iā€™ll pray till Heavā€™n Iā€™ve found)
Ee Bwana unipandishe (Lord, plant my feet on higher ground)
(Repeat)

(Chorus)

Notes:
The English translation in this song is not exact. The Swahili version was adopted from the original hymn, that is why the translation is the hymn itself. Otherwise, the translation differs for example as follows: (Verse 1 + Chorus)

I’m moving forward/I am pressing on/Listen to my prayers /Oh Father lift me up
Oh Father Lift me up/to stand in faith/To climb all hills/ Oh Father lift me up.
