Ndosiya kusuwa kwangu (I’m trading my sorrows)
Ndosiya marwadzo angu (I’m trading My shame)
Ndosiya ndichitora mufaro washe (I’m laying it down for the joy of the Lord)
Ndosiya uwere wangu (I’m trading My sickness)
Ndosiya onyatsi dzangu (I’m trading My pain)
Ndosiya ndichitora mufano washe (I’m laying it down for the joy of the Lord)

Chorus:
Yes Lord, Yes Lord, yes yes Lord
(Ndinobvuma hangu) [Yes, I agree]
Yes Lord, Yes Lord, yes yes Lord
(Ndinobvuma inini) [Yes, I agree]
Amen

I’m trading my sorrows
I’m trading My shame
I’m laying them down for the joy of the Lord
I’m trading My sickness
I’m trading My pain
I’m laying it down for the joy of the Lord

(Chorus)

We wanna agree on some things:
If Jesus says victory is yours, you say (Yes!)
If Jesus says healing is yours, you say (Yes!)
If He says prosperity is yours, you say (Yes!)
[…] What do you say (Yes!)
What do you say (Yes!), What do you say (Yes!)

Tenderera, Tenderera…

(Chorus)

Tomurumbidza, Tomurumbidza (We praise Him)
(Tomurumbidza, Tomurumbidza Jesu) (We praise Jesus)
Tomurumbidza iwe (Eh Yahweh) (We praise him, [Eh Yahweh])

Tomuombera, tomuombera (We clap to Him)
(Tomuombera, tomuombera Jesu) (We to Jesus)
(Eh Yahweh, Eh Yahweh)
[…]

Tomurumbidza, Tomurumbidza (We praise Him)
