Benjamin Dube - Intando Emnandi Lyrics

"Intando Emnandi" is a brief Zulu prayer whose title translates as "sweet will," referring to God's will rather than personal desire. The short lyric asks God directly to draw the singer close to His will, naming the Holy Spirit specifically as the one addressed in that request. A following line asks that personal will be overcome or broken, a direct request for surrender rather than a passive hope that circumstances will align naturally. The closing line completes that surrender with a simple declaration of belonging, asking to become entirely God's own. Because the song is so short, it functions less as a developed composition and more as a spoken prayer set to music, similar in shape to Christ's own prayer asking that God's will be done rather than His own. Its brevity and directness suit a quiet moment of personal surrender within a larger worship setting.
