Lyrics

Moyo wangu hauwezi My soulheart cannot
Kukusifu kweli Truly praise you
Ila sifa zangu hizi But here are my praises
Bwana zikubali 


Hata ndimi elfu 
Hazitoshi kamwe 
Kukusifu kweli 
Kwa mapendo yako 


Ametenda Amefanya He has done
Tena ametenda amefanya 


Haleluya Haleluya 
Haleluya Hale Haleluya

Meaning & Inspiration

Moyo wangu hauwezi kukusifu expresses the limits of human praise before the greatness of God’s love and works. The singer admits that even a willing heart and a thousand tongues could not offer praise equal to what God deserves. That humility leads not to silence, but to a simple request that the Lord accept the praise being offered. The repeated declaration that God has acted then gives way to hallelujah, making gratitude the song’s central response.

Psalm 150:2 closely matches this emphasis by calling for praise according to God’s excellent greatness and mighty deeds. Psalm 40:3 also connects with the lyric’s movement from God’s action to a new song of praise. The image of many tongues being insufficient is poetic rather than a claim that worship has no value. Instead, it presents divine love as beyond full measurement while still treating praise as a fitting response. The brief refrain keeps the focus on what God has done, and the repeated hallelujah serves as the song’s direct expression of thanksgiving.
