(Sung in Swahili)

Refrain:
Usinipite mwokozi, unisikie
(Pass me not oh gentle Savior, Hear my cry)
Unapozuru wengine, naomba usinipite
(While on others though art calling, I pray – do not pass me by)
Yesu! Yesu! Naomba unisike
(Jesus! Savior! Hear my humble cry)
Unapozuru wengine, usinipite
(While on others though art calling, I pray – do not pass me by)

Ukiita peace, nitapata, joh nitapata (When you call peace, I will receive it)
Ishi vile unataka, vile unataka (To live the way you wish for me)
Bila wewe nitasuffer, oh nitasuffer (For without You I will suffer)
Mi taka ulipo, ndio mi nataka tuu kukaa (I want to be where You are) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Kiti chako cha Rehema, nakitazama (I look upon Your throne of Mercy)
Magoti napiga pale, nisamehewe (There I am on my knees, to receive forgiveness) (Repeat)

(Refrain)

Nakutegemea kwa …. Mola wange, Mola wanje (My Lord I rely upon You)
Wanifariji duniani na mbinguni, ewe mola wanje, mola waje (You comfort me both here and in Heaven)
Nitapata maono Ukiingilia kati, maisha yange, maisha yange (I shall receive my visions if you are in my life)
Usinipite (Do not pass me by)

(Refrain)

Rain Hymn, Swahili Gospel Lyrics, Tanzania , , , , 7 Comments


(Sung in Swahili – A Hymn)

Kijito cha utakaso ni damu ya Yesu (The cleansing river is the Blood of Jesus)
Bwana anao uwezo kunipa wokovu (The Lord has the authority to grant me salvation)
Viumbe vipya naona, Damu ina nguvu (I see new beings, the Blood is powerful)
Imeharibu uovu, uliyo dhulumu (It has destroyed the evil that harm)

Refrain:
Kijito cha utakaso (The cleansing river)
Nizame kuoshwa humo (That I may be immersed and cleansed there)
Namsifu Bwana kwa hiyo (I praise the Lord because)
Nimepata utakaso (I have received the cleansing) (Repeat)

Naondoka kutembea, nuruni mwa mbingu (I have left to walk, under the heavenly lights)
Na moyo safi kabisa kumpendeza Mungu (With a clean heart that pleases God)
Ni neema ya ajabu kupakwa na damu (What a great Grace to be anointed by the blood)
Na Bwana Yesu kujua Yesu wa msalaba (Of The Lord, and to know Jesus of the Cross!)

(Refrain)

(Sung in Swahili)

Version 2: by Enid Moraa (YouTube)

Mbeleni naendelea, (I’m pressing on the upward way)
Ninazidi kutembea (New heights I’m gaining every day)
Mombi uyasikie (Still praying as I’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 Heaven’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 Satan’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 I’ll pray till Heav’n I’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.
