Themba lethu, ithemba laphakade (Our hope, our eternal hope)

Oh wena Jesu (Only You Jesus) (Repeat)

Jesu, Jesu ithemba lethu (Jesus is our hope)
Wena ugcweli nkazimulo (You are full of glory)
Thina sithemba wena wedwa (We trust in You alone)
Oh wena Jesu (Only You Jesus) (Repeat)

Webancwele somemezela nje (We will proclaim it)
Ubuthi uJesu, uJesu yena yedwa (You are Jesus, Only Jesus)
Ulithemba lethu, ugcweli nkazimulo! (You are our hope and full of glory)
Thina sithemba wena wedwa (We trust in You alone)
Oh wena Jesu (Only You Jesus)

Lelo cala kwakungelethu (The burden of guilt was ours)
Kodwa Jesu Kristu walithwala (But Jesus Christ carried it)

Sithemba wena wedwa (We trust in You alone)
Oh wena Jesu (Only You Jesus) (Repeat)

‘Kenibhek’ uthando lwakhe (Behold His love)
Asinike lon’ uYise (The Father has given us)
Sesithiwe abantwana (We that are called His children)
Futhi usamukelise (He has accepted us)
‘Moya wakhe enhliz’weni (His Spirit lives in us)
Oyisibambiso sethu (He’s our assurance)
Ufakaza emoyeni (Testifying within our hearts)
Ulikhomba ifa lethu (Leading us to our inheritance)

Yek’ umusa! Yek’ uthando (Oh what Grace! Oh what Love!)
Sesingabantwana bakhe (For us His children)
Yek’ umusa! Yek’ uthando!(Oh what Grace! Oh what Love!)
Siyizindlalifa zakhe (For us His children) (Repeat)
