Beda Andrew - Nayaweza Lyrics
Lyrics
Baba amesema kwamba tumwite nae atasikia
Tena amesema kwamba tukimwomba jambo atatutendea
Ila tuwe na imani nayeye
Tukiamini anaweza yote eeeeh
Mwenye hofu ajigange moyo
Akiamini Mungu yupo
Huku tukifanya kazi
Tukipambana tukipambana
Tukimwamini wetu mwokozi Yesu wa maana ashushae baraka aaah aaah
Nayaweza
Nayaweza
Nayaweza
Nayaa

Nayaaaa
Palipo na nia pana njia tena hutimia so nenda polepole utafika,Yanini kukimbia eeenh
Fanya magumu kama hujayaona japo yanachoma usijali wewe
Wanaokucheka watapata homa
Pale wakikuona unasonga mbele
Daily mapambano pigana
Ukisaka Day
Wanaokucheka Leo achana nao
Tazama kesho yakooooh
Nayaweza
Nayaweza
Nayaweza
Nayaweza
Nayaaaa
Nayaweza

Meaning & Inspiration
Beda Andrew's "Nayaweza," officially released on August 14, 2020, stands as a potent anthem of faith and perseverance, its message resonating deeply with anyone navigating life's challenges. The title itself, a powerful declaration in Swahili meaning "I can do it" or "I am able," sets the stage for a profound spiritual journey rooted in unwavering trust in a higher power.
The song immediately dives into foundational Christian truths, beginning with the assurance that "Baba amesema kwamba tumwite nae atasikia" (Father has said that we call Him and He will hear). This echoes the comforting promise found in Jeremiah 33:3, "Call to Me and I will answer you," and Matthew 7:7, "Ask, and it will be given to you." Beda Andrew then builds upon this, stating, "Tena amesema kwamba tukimwomba jambo atatutendea" (Again He has said that if we ask Him for something, He will do it for us), a direct affirmation of God's responsiveness, contingent upon faith. The core condition, "Ila tuwe na imani nayeye, Tukiamini anaweza yote" (But we must have faith in Him, believing He can do all things), beautifully encapsulates Hebrews 11:6: "Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." This isn't just a casual belief; it’s an active, trust-filled reliance on God's omnipotence, an understanding that with Him, all things are possible (Matthew 19:26).
The lyrics then turn to those wrestling with fear, encouraging them to "Mwenye hofu ajigange moyo, Akiamini Mungu yupo" (Whoever has fear, strengthen your heart, believing God is present). This is a vital reminder of God's abiding presence, a truth repeatedly found in Scripture, such as in Joshua 1:9, "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid... for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." It’s an invitation to find courage not in self-reliance, but in the certainty of God's unwavering support. Critically, the song doesn't advocate for passive waiting; it couples faith with action: "Huku tukifanya kazi, Tukipambana tukipambana" (While we work, while we strive, we struggle/fight). This aligns perfectly with the biblical principle that faith without works is dead (James 2:17). We are called to diligent effort, to engage in our daily "mapambano" (struggles), all while "Tukimwamini wetu mwokozi Yesu wa maana ashushae baraka" (Believing in our meaningful Savior Jesus, who brings down blessings). Here, Jesus is explicitly identified as the source of salvation and blessings, a central tenet of the Christian faith, as Philippians 4:19 reminds us that "my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus."
The powerful chorus, "Nayaweza," serves as an anthem of personal empowerment derived from divine strength. It is an echo of Philippians 4:13, "I can do all this through him who gives me strength." This isn't a boast of human capability but a declaration of what one can achieve *through* God. The song wisely adds practical wisdom for the journey: "Palipo na nia pana njia tena hutimia so nenda polepole utafika, Yanini kukimbia eeenh" (Where there is a will, there is a way, and it will be fulfilled, so go slowly, you will arrive, why rush?). This encourages patience and perseverance, reminding us that progress often comes incrementally, aligning with biblical calls for endurance in trials (Romans 5:3-4, James 1:2-4).
Furthermore, Beda Andrew addresses the inevitable resistance and criticism one faces on the path to progress. "Fanya magumu kama hujayaona japo yanachoma usijali wewe, Wanaokucheka watapata homa Pale wakikuona unasonga mbele" (Do difficult things as if you haven't seen them, even if they sting, don't worry, Those who mock you will get a fever/be shocked when they see you moving forward). This profound advice to press on despite hardship and criticism resonates with the spirit of Romans 8:31: "If God is for us, who can be against us?" It calls for a defiance of discouragement, trusting that divine vindication will ultimately silence detractors. The instruction to "Wanaokucheka Leo achana nao, Tazama kesho yakooooh" (Those who mock you today, leave them alone, Look at your tomorrow) is a powerful lesson in focusing on God's promises and future hope rather than present negativity, a sentiment echoed in Philippians 3:13-14, where Paul speaks of forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead.
In essence, "Nayaweza" is more than just a song; it is a spiritual blueprint for navigating life with faith, courage, and diligent effort. It masterfully interweaves human aspiration with divine provision, urging everyone to embrace the truth that through God, they are capable of overcoming obstacles and achieving their God-given potential. It serves as a stirring reminder that God hears, God answers, God is present, and through Him, we truly "Nayaweza"—we can do it. This deeply encouraging piece of music offers comfort, challenge, and an undeniable surge of hope for anyone seeking strength for their journey.
