Namonaki soni ndenge eyaki ko kota na ekuke na nga yaya
Namonaki soni ndenge eyaki ko kota na ekuke na nga yaya
Namonaki soni ndenge eyaki ko kota na ekuke na nga yaya
Tongo tongo ba bengi nga balobi kuna sango esi epanzanio
Si nayoki lokola nzambe nga nde mutu na n’a Sali mabe
Oyo n’a mokili n’a memi kenioyo
Nzoka nde olobi n’a ekulusunioso ekoki po nga bika yaya
Si omemi mikumba n’a nga ko moto yoko moto te

Si Namonaki soni ndenge eyaki ko kota na ekuke na nga yaya
Si Namonaki soni ndenge eyaki ko kota na ekuke na nga yaya
Namonaki soni ndenge eyaki ko kota na ekuke na nga yaya
Kisi ya soni aye alongoli soni n’a nga yaya

Nakanisi musika n’a wuti n’a Congo po nakoma awa papa

Kisi Ya Soni Song Meaning, Biblical Reference and Inspiration

Grace Lokwa’s compelling song, “Kisi Ya Soni,” released on July 3, 2022, quickly resonated with many around the world, becoming more than just a melody but a declaration of faith. The title, stemming from the Lingala language, carries a profound spiritual weight, translating essentially to "There is no shame" or more interpretively within the song's context, conveying that "He (Jesus) is not ashamed" or urging us, "Don't be ashamed." This central theme flows from the artist's life and ministry, speaking to the confidence and freedom found in openly identifying with Christ, regardless of circumstances or what the world might think.

Musically, the song is vibrant and uplifting, marked by a rhythm that invites participation and a melody that lingers long after it finishes. This energetic foundation perfectly complements the powerful message it carries. The song challenges the notion that faith is something to be hidden away or apologized for. Instead, it proclaims a bold assurance rooted in a relationship with Jesus. The lyrics, while simple and direct, tap into a core struggle many face – the fear of judgment or ridicule for their beliefs. By declaring "Kisi Ya Soni," the song acts as an anthem for overcoming this fear, standing firm in one's identity in Christ.

This message finds deep roots throughout Scripture, offering a powerful echo of biblical truths about shame and faith. The Apostle Paul explicitly states in Romans 10:11, "As the Scripture says, 'Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.'" This verse is a foundational promise, directly aligning with the song's declaration – belief in Jesus eliminates the possibility of ultimate shame. Similarly, the Psalmist affirms in Psalm 34:5, "Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame." This paints a picture of the transformative power of focusing on God, where shame is not merely hidden but completely removed, replaced by radiance. The prophet Isaiah adds to this chorus in Isaiah 49:23, promising, "Then you will know that I am the Lord; those who hope in me will not be disappointed," with disappointment in this context often carrying the connotation of being put to shame. Hope anchored in the Lord leads to steadfastness and freedom from disgrace.

Furthermore, the New Testament contrasts this freedom from shame with the potential consequence of being ashamed of Christ. In Mark 8:38, Jesus Himself warns, "If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them when he comes in his Father’s glory with the holy angels." This challenging word underscores the importance of the stance the song encourages – an unashamed identification with Jesus. Paul echoes this call to boldness in 2 Timothy 1:8, urging Timothy, "So do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord or of me his prisoner. Rather, join with me in suffering for the gospel, by the power of God." The song provides a musical expression of this scriptural command to not be ashamed of bearing witness to Christ or suffering for the gospel, reminding people that divine power is available for such a stand. Perhaps most wonderfully, the song’s spirit also connects to the incredible truth revealed in Hebrews 11:16, which speaks of the heroes of faith and states, "Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them." This reveals the reciprocal nature of the relationship: because we are not ashamed to belong to Him, He is not ashamed to call us His own. "Kisi Ya Soni" captures this profound theological reality in an accessible and repeatable way, serving as a powerful reminder that in Christ, there is indeed no shame, and that our confident confession of faith is not only validated but also reciprocated by God Himself. It’s a song that not only inspires us to cast off shame but also celebrates the glorious promise that God is not ashamed of us.
