Lyrics
Hakuna Mungu mwingine
Kama na wewe Yesu
Tunaliabudu jina lako mfalme
Sifa na maabudu, zote ni zako
Sifa na maabudu, zote ni zako
Wewe ni zaidi ya mshindi
Wewe ni zaidi ya mshindi
Tangu enzi unaitwa Mungu
Unaitwa Mungu mwema
Ni nani mwingine aliye kama wewe
Wewe bwana
Sifa na maabudu, zote ni zako
Sifa na maabudu, zote ni zako
Hakuna kama wewe Yesu
Hakuna mwenye neema kama yako mfalme
Kwani mi ni nani unitunuku hivi baba
(Unitunuku hivi baba)
Umenipa uwezo wa kuona siku nyingine
Umenipa uhai bwana
Mausia yako kaiweka sahihi
Sifa na maabudu, zote ni zako
Sifa na maabudu, zote ni zako
Katika majaribu Ayubu alishinda
Wana wa Israeli ukawashindania
Na mimi najua utanishindania
Yote unayopitia Mungu yuko pamoja na wewe
Kile nakuomba mpe sifa zote
Kwako Yesu
Sifa na maabudu, zote ni zako
Nakupa zote
Sifa na maabudu, zote ni zako
Nakupa zote bwana
Sifa na maabudu, zote ni zako
Sifa na maabudu, zote ni zako
Sifa na maabudu, zote ni zako
Sifa na maabudu, zote ni zako

Meaning & Inspiration
“Nikuabudu” is a Swahili offering of praise that declares Jesus incomparable and worthy of all worship. The recurring line assigns both “sifa” and “maabudu” to God, while the verses name His goodness, grace, gift of life, and help in trials. Gratitude is therefore joined to confidence: the same God praised for another day is trusted to stand with His people in difficulty.
The song also reaches into biblical memory. Its mention of Job enduring trials reflects the perseverance associated with his story, while the reference to the children of Israel recalls God’s repeated deliverance of His people. Exodus 14:13–14 is especially relevant to the declaration that God fights for His people. Psalm 86:8 closely matches the confession that there is none like the Lord, and Psalm 150:6 supports the call for every living being to offer praise. The result is worship shaped by remembrance, thanksgiving, and assurance of God’s continuing presence.
