Lyrics

Nikufahamu zaidi Bwana aah, nikujue zaidi Yesu
Nikufahamu zaidi Yahweh, nikuishie milele Bwana aah


Nikufahamu zaidi Bwana aah, nikujue zaidi Yesu
Nikufahamu zaidi Yahweh, nikuishie milele Bwana aah


Nataka nitembee na wewe wakati wote
Nitembee kwa nuru yako Baba eeh
Nishirikiane na wewe eeh kwa kila jambo
ongoza hatua zangu, ewe Baba,ongoza hatua zangu ewe Baba
Ongoza hatu hatua zangu Yesu uu


Nikufahamu zaidi Bwana aah, nikujue zaidi Yesu
Nikufahamu zaidi Yahweh, nikuishie milele Bwana aah


Wewe ni mume wa wajane, baba wa yatima mfariji wa waliofiwa
Mtetezi wa wanyonge, unaponya waliovunjwa mioyo
Nakuzinganda jeraha zao Baba eeh
Hawa wote tengemeo lao ni wewe Baba
Ndiposa wanasema


Nikufahamu zaidi Bwana aah, nikujue zaidi Yesu
Nikufahamu zaidi Yahweh, nikuishie milele Bwana aah


Nikufahamu, Nikujue
Nikufahamu Nikujue


Nikufahamu zaidi Bwana aah, nikujue zaidi Yesu
Nikufahamu zaidi Yahweh, nikuishie milele Bwana aah


To Know you More Lord

Meaning & Inspiration

“Nikufahamu Zaidi Bwana” is a prayer to know the Lord more fully and live in faithful fellowship with him. The repeated request to know Jesus and Yahweh gives the song a devotional focus, while the verses make that desire practical. The singer asks to walk in God’s light, share every matter with him, and receive direction for each step. Knowledge of God is therefore presented not as abstract information but as a life of dependence, obedience, and continuing communion.

The song also praises God through his care for vulnerable people. Its description of him as father to orphans, defender of widows, comforter of mourners, and healer of broken hearts closely reflects biblical language. Those images broaden the prayer beyond personal guidance by identifying the character of the God being sought. The closing repetitions keep attention on relationship with him, joining the longing for guidance with confidence that God remains the refuge of those who lack other support.
