Lyrics
Mungu wangu Mungu wa neno
Mungu wangu Mungu wa agano
Una kweli wewe ni ngao
Hautafeli na usemalo ndilo
Niongoze upendavyo
Nitembee juu ya maji
Nifinyange ni udongo
Nikujue zaidi na zaidi na zaidi
Imani yangu roho wa Mungu
Waniita nimesikia
Nakusongea we wanisongea oh
Ninakutafuta wewe wanitosha
Niongoze nitembee juu ya maji
Nifinyange ni udongo
Nikujue zaidi na zaidi na zaidi
Nikujue zaidi na zaidi na zaidi
Nikujue zaidi na zaidi na zaidi
Nikujue zaidi na zaidi na zaidi
Nizamishe ndani yako
Nipungue uongezeke
Nizamishe ndani yako
Nipungue nisionekane
Niongoze upendavyo
Nitembee juu ya maji
Nifinyange ni udongo
Nikujue zaidi na zaidi na zaidi

Meaning & Inspiration
Zaidi na Zaidi is a prayer for increasing knowledge of God through trust, surrender, and spiritual formation. The lyric describes God as faithful to his word and covenant, a dependable shield whose speech does not fail. From that foundation, the singer asks for guidance, courage to walk on water, and the humility to be shaped like clay. The repeated desire to know God more gives each petition a single direction rather than presenting separate themes.
Several biblical images are clearly echoed. Matthew 14:28-29 supplies the picture of stepping onto the water at a divine call, while Jeremiah 18:6 compares Gods people to clay in the potters hand. The request to decrease so that God may increase closely follows John 3:30. These connections place the song within a worshipful language of dependence: faith responds to Gods call, submits to his shaping, and seeks less prominence for the self as devotion grows.
