Lyrics
Ndege waanza nawewe nani aliyewapa amani
Walioamka mapema kuimba nyimbo mpya siku mpya
Huku na wewe waamka kuanza kulalamika
Kwa majirani mara nile nini
Kesho ntalala wapi nyumba ikifungwa
Jifunze kumuamini kuishi kwa njia zake
Ju wewe ni mali yake
Sehemu ya mwenye haki ni baraka kumiliki
Na huu mwaka haitingiki kwako waambie
Huu ni wakati wako, wakati wakubarikiwa
Huu ni wakati wako, wakati wakuinuliwa
Huu ni wakati wako, wakati wakubarikiwa
Huu ni wakati wako, wakati wakuinuliwa
Kilichozuia baraka maishani mwaka mwaka iliyopita
Bwana Yesu ameondoa hakipo tena
Umezunguka milima kwa muda murefu huendi popote
Bwana Yesu amefungua milango yako asante sana
Endelea kumuamini kuishi kwa njia zake
Ju wewe ni mali yake atakufariji
Utii amri zake kulingana na neno lake
Na huu mwaka hautingiki kwa itatibika neno lake
Huu ni wakati wako, wakati wakubarikiwa
Huu ni wakati wako, wakati wakuinuliwa
Huu ni wakati wako, wakati wakubarikiwa
Huu ni wakati wako, wakati wakuinuliwa
Penya mwenyangu penya - penya
Kazini na kwako nyumbani - penya
Maisha ni kwako ? - penya
Umebarikiwa Mshukuru aliyekubariki
Hewa safi hekima maarifa - penya
Familia nzuri - penya
Huu ni wakati wako, wakati wakubarikiwa
Huu ni wakati wako, wakati wakuinuliwa
Huu ni wakati wako, wakati wakubarikiwa
Huu ni wakati wako, wakati wakuinuliwa

Meaning & Inspiration
“Wakati Wa Kubarikiwa” contrasts anxious complaint with trust in God’s care. The opening picture of birds greeting a new day sets worry about food and shelter against a call to live according to God’s ways. The song repeatedly declares a time of blessing and uplift, yet it also connects that confidence with obedience, gratitude, and continued reliance on Jesus. Its language is hopeful, focused on divine provision and the removal of barriers that have held life back.
The bird imagery closely recalls Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 6:26, where birds are fed by the heavenly Father and become an example against anxiety. The appeal to trust God and follow his paths also reflects Proverbs 3:5-6. As the refrain returns, blessing is presented not merely as possession but as a reason to thank the One who gives life, wisdom, family, and opportunity. The repeated call to press forward gives the song the character of communal encouragement rooted in faith rather than fear.
