Lyrics

Kwa mji wa mwangaza hapana usiku, 


hautapita tena, hapana usiku 


Mungu atayafuta machozi na hasara hapo 


miaka itakoma hapana usiku 2


Na mji ule hauhitaji jua wala mwezi kuuangaza kwa maana utukufu wa Mungu huutia nuru


na taa yake ni mwana kondoo..


Jua halitakiwi hapana usiku ...


Yesu ndiye nuru kweli hapana usiku uuuh... 


Mungu atayafuta machozi na hasara 


hapo miaka itakoma hapana usiku 


kwa mji wa mbinguni


hapana usiku,


Milele furahini, hapana usiku


 


 Mungu atayafuta machozi na hasara, 


 hapo miaka itakoma hapana usiku (x3)


Kwa mji wa mwangaza hapana usiku, 


hautapita tena, hapana usiku

Meaning & Inspiration

Kwa Mji Wa Mwangaza looks toward the holy city where darkness, loss, and tears have ended. Its recurring declaration that there is no night gives the song both its imagery and its hope. The city needs neither sun nor moon because the glory of God supplies its light and the Lamb is its lamp. This language directly follows the vision of the new Jerusalem in Revelation.

The verses also connect eternal light with consolation. God wipes away tears, earthly years reach their limit, and lasting joy replaces former sorrow. By naming Jesus as the true light, the lyric brings the future vision into a confession centered on Christ. Repetition allows the promise to function as assurance: night will not return, divine glory will not fade, and joy in the heavenly city will continue forever. The song therefore holds together biblical expectation and worship, presenting eternal life not merely as escape from darkness but as unbroken life in the presence and light of God.
