Lyrics

Your will oh Lord 


Your will oh Lord 


Your will be done to me 


Your will oh Lord 


Your will oh Lord 


Let Your will, let your will


Your will be done to me 


Not my will oh Lord 


But Your will in my life 


Let will be done to me 


But Your will be done to me 


I know it's not easy 


But this is my prayer to You 


Let Your will, let your will


Your will be done to me 


Your will oh Lord 


Your will oh Lord 


Your will be done to me 


Your will oh Lord 


Your will oh Lord 


Your will be done to me 


Mapenzi yangu yavunjike Yesu 


Ya kwako yafanyike eeh 


Your will be done to me 


Matamanio yangu yaondoke Yesu 


Ya kwako yafanyike maishani mwangu 


Your will be done to me 


Your will oh Lord 


Your will oh Lord 


Your will be done to me 


I surrender 


I surrender 


Your will be done 


Your will be done to me 


Yahweh 


Yahweh 


Your will be done to me 


I praise You


Hallelujah 


Hallelujah 


Your will be done to me

Meaning & Inspiration

Your Will Be Done is a prayer of surrender expressed in both English and Swahili. Its central petition asks for personal desire to yield so that the will of God may shape the singer’s life. The admission that surrender is not easy gives the prayer honesty, while the repeated invocations of the Lord and Yahweh keep its attention fixed on God rather than on personal resolve.

The lyric closely recalls the prayer of Jesus before the crucifixion, when he submitted his own will to the Father. It also echoes the petition for the will of God to be done that appears in the Lord’s Prayer. The Swahili lines ask for personal wishes and ambitions to fall away, strengthening the theme of obedience across both languages. Repetition turns the short phrases into a sustained act of devotion, and the closing praise and hallelujahs connect surrender with worship. The song presents submission not as passivity, but as a deliberate prayer for a life aligned with God.
