Lyrics
Cha kutumaini sina ila
Roho yako bwana
Sina wema wa kutosha
Dhambi zangu kuziosha
Cha kutumaini sina ila
Roho yako bwana
Sina wema wa kutosha
Dhambi zangu kuziosha
Kwa baba nanyenyeke, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Sitarudishwa nyuma na chochote, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Anapigana kwa ajili yangu, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Mtetezi anaishi milele milele, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Njia yangu iwe ndefu, Yeye hunipa wokovu
Mawimbi yakinipiga, nguvu zake ndiyo nanga
Njia yangu iwe ndefu, Yeye hunipa wokovu
Mawimbi yakinipiga, nguvu zake ndiyo nanga
Kwa baba yangu nasimama, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Mwenzenu nikilia ninanyamazishwa, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Anateta na adui zangu wote, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Anaandaa meza mbele ya watesi wangu, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Nikiitwa hukumuni, rohoni nina amani
Nikivikwa haki yake, sina hofu mbele zake
Nikiitwa hukumuni, rohoni nina amani
Nikivikwa haki yake, sina hofu mbele zake
Kwa baba nanyenyekea aah, mwamba ni sala
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Mwenzenu sina mashaka nimesimamishwa, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Sijajaza mashaka ndani yangu nina nguvu, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Ananichunga popote niendapo niwe salama, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Amenificha kwenye mwamba adui hataniona, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Asante mwamba imara
Mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama
Sitaogopa chochote niko kwenye mwamba, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Kitu gani mwenzenu kinitoe kwake, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Ananikinga na kila hila za adui, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Ameyanyoosha mapito yangu napita salama, mwamba ni salama
Ndiye mwamba ni salama, ndiye mwamba ni salama
Amenilaza kwenye kifua chake cha upendo
Ni mwamba salama kwangu salama
Nimuache niende kwa nani, kwa nani mwenzenu ooh
Yeye ni mwamba ni mwamba, ni mwamba....

Meaning & Inspiration
Cha Kutumaini Sina presents God as a secure rock when personal goodness cannot cleanse sin or sustain confidence. The singer approaches the Father humbly, confessing need and repeatedly naming the rock as a place of safety. Images of long roads, striking waves, judgment, enemies, and hidden danger give the song a broad view of trouble. Against each threat, salvation, righteousness, protection, and the living advocate provide peace.
Several lines closely echo biblical images. God prepares a table before enemies, serves as rock and fortress, and gives refuge from opposition. The references to being clothed in righteousness and standing without fear also connect safety with grace rather than moral sufficiency. Repetition turns the phrase about the safe rock into the songs steady anchor, while the closing question expresses exclusive dependence on God. As a Swahili hymn of trust, it combines confession, spiritual conflict, and thanksgiving, presenting divine care as sufficient in danger, accusation, and final judgment.
