Lyrics
Kazi Ya Msalaba
Baraka Nimepokea, Kwako Nimetulia Mimi
Nisije Tumbukia kwa mambo Ya Dunia
Kwako Nijifiche Milele
Fitina Zanizingira, Anasa Kila Kona
Kwa Mikono Yako,
Niweke Mtakatifu
Tokeo Leo Hadi Milele
Niwe Radhi Mimi, Kwa Makosa Yote
Anipenda, Anijali, Anipenda
Kazi Ya Msalaba, Nimepokea, Nimekubali,
Nitakusifu, Nitakuimbia Milele
Kazi Ya Msalaba, Nimepokea, Nimekubali,
Nitakusifu, Nitakuimbia Milele
Ilikuwa Ni Juzi Tu, Mwanzo Kwangu Kutembea
Ukapumzisha Kwangu Kuongonjea
Lakini Kwako Zaidi Nasogea
Nishiriki Nawe Kwa Mazoea
Zile Kwako Ndo Napokea
Nikuone, Kwangu Baba Ukinitendea
Wewe Ndo Wangu Tu Mimi Na Wewe Tu
Nikuone Kwangu Ukinitendea
Wewe Ndo Wangu Tu Mimi Na Wewe Tu
Nikuone Kwangu Ukinitendea
Kazi Ya Msalaba, Nimepokea, Nimekubali,
Nitakusifu, Nitakuimbia Milele
Kazi Ya Msalaba, Nimepokea, Nimekubali,
Nitakusifu, Nitakuimbia Milele
Siri Ni Yesu, siri niBaba
Siri Ni Ye, Siri ni Yee
Siri Ni Yesu , Siri ni Yesu
Kazi Ya Msalaba, Nimepokea, Nimekubali,
Nitakusifu, Nitakuimbia Milele

Meaning & Inspiration
Kazi Ya Msalaba presents the cross of Christ as the source of blessing, refuge, holiness, and lasting praise. The singer receives and accepts what the cross has accomplished, then answers with a promise to praise and sing forever. References to worldly temptation, surrounding hostility, and the desire to remain holy give the song a confessional tone. Its repeated phrase, ‘Siri ni Yesu,’ identifies Jesus as the answer beneath that confidence, while the address to the Father expresses dependence on God’s care and action.
The central theme closely fits Galatians 6:14, where boasting rests in the cross of Jesus Christ rather than the world. First Peter 2:24 also illuminates the prayer for holiness by connecting Christ’s bearing of sin with living in righteousness. The lyrics do not treat the cross as a distant symbol; they describe its work as personally received and accepted. That acceptance leads away from destructive attractions and toward worship, trust, and a life kept near God.
