(Sung in Swahili)

Peleleza moyo wangu (Search my heart)
Eh Bwana wa Majeshi (Oh Lord of Hosts)
Ondoa giza ndani yangu (Remove darkness from me)
Nitembee katika nuru (And let me walk in the light)

Refrain:
Katika unyonge wangu (In my weakness)
Unitulize moyo (Comfort my heart)
Natubu makosa (I repent of my sins)
Bwana niponye (Lord, heal me) (Repeat)

Unishike mkono Bwana (Lord hold my hand)
Mimi ni mdhaifu (For I am weak)
Nijalie fungu katika (Grant me a space)
Ufalme wako mbinguni (In your heavenly kingdom)

(Refrain)

Unikinge nayo mitego (Keep me away from the traps)
Yake mwovu shetani (Of the evil Satan)
Upendo wako haulingani (For Your love cannot be compared)
Na chochote duniani (With anything on earth)

(Refrain)

Nishike mkono Bwana (Lord hold my hand)
Nishike Mkono, nishike mkono Bwana (Hold my hand, Hold my hand Lord)
Nishike mkono (Hold my hand)

Uniongoze Bwana (Lead me Lord)
Uniongoze, Uniongoze Bwana (Lead me, lead me Lord)
Uniongoze (Lead me)

Nitangulie Baba (Father go before me)
Nitangulie, Nitangulie Bwana (Go before me, go before me Lord)
Nitangulie (Go before me)

Mimi ni wako Bwana (I am yours, Lord)
Mimi ni wako, Mimi ni wako Bwana (I am Yours, I am Yours Lord)
Mimi ni wako (I am yours)

Wewe ni wangu Bwana (Lord You are mine)
Wewe ni wangu, Wewe ni wangu Bwana (You are mine, You are mine Lord)
Wewe ni wangu (You are mine)

Uniongoze Bwana (Lead me Lord)
Uniongoze, Uniongoze Bwana (Lead me, lead me Lord)
Uniongoze (Lead me)

(Sung in Swahili)

Refrain:
Repeat: Sitarudi kuwa vile (I shall not revert to how I was)

Kwa uwezo wake roho (With the Holy Spirit’s might)
Mimi nakataa kudharauliwa (I refuse to be despised)
Nakataa maisha ya chini x2 (I refuse poverty)
Kwani Baba amenikumbuka (Because Father has remembered me)
Baba amenikumbuka (Father has remembered me)
Mimi ni mbarikiwa x3 (I am blessed)

Huu ni mwaka wa Bwana (This is the year of the Lord)
Amenitendea mengi (He has done many things for me)
Na hisi moyoni mwangu (I feel in my heart)
Bwana amenikumbuka (That the Lord has remembered me)
Mwaka jana niliteseka (Last year I suffered)
Sitarudi pale tena (I shall not return there again)
(Repeat)

(Refrain)

Ewe baba/ndugu umeteseka (You dad/brother you’ve suffered)
Huu ni mwaka wa Bwana (This is the year of the Lord)
Baba amekukumbuka (Father has remembered you)
Hakuna mateso tena (No more suffering)
Ya kale yamepita (The old has passed away)
Usirudi kule tena (Do not return there again)
(Repeat)

Refrain 2:
Hautarudi Kuwa vile (You will not return to the way you were)

Baba mekukumbuka (Father has remembered you)
Kwani wewe ni mbarikiwa (Because you are blessed)

Uliachwa bila makao (You have been left with no shelter)
Mama yangu usilie (Mother do not cry)
Jehova Shalom ametenda (The Lord of peace has done great things)
Amerejesha amani (He has returned peace)
Hautarudi pale tena (You shall not return there again)
Baba amekukumbuka (Father has remembered you)
(repeat)

(Refrain 2)
