Lyrics
We ndiwe kimbilio langu
Wakati wowote nakukimbilia
We ndiwe msaada wangu
Usiku na mchana nakutazimia aah
Nitaeleza sifa zako eh Baba
Kwa mataifa wote wajue
Ukuu wako unazidi kuzimu
Uaminifu wako wanishangaaza
Napokuita we wanisikia
Napokuomba wanijibu
Wakati wote we wapatikana
Zaidi swahibu Upokaribu
We ndiwe kimbilio langu
Wakati wowote nakukimbilia
We ndiwe msaada wangu
Usiku na mchana nakutazimia
Nainua macho yangu
Natazaama milimani
Msaada wangu watoka wapi?
Msaada wangu watoka kwako

Meaning & Inspiration
“Nakutazamia” presents God as a constant refuge and source of help. The singer turns to Him at every hour, trusting that He hears prayer and remains near. Praise grows out of that confidence: God’s greatness and faithfulness are to be declared among the nations, while His availability is described as closer than a friend. The recurring words “We ndiwe kimbilio langu” keep the focus on God as the one dependable shelter.
The passage about lifting the eyes toward the hills directly echoes Psalm 121:1-2, including the question of where help comes from and the answer that help comes from the Lord. The language of refuge also aligns with Psalm 46:1, which names God as refuge, strength, and present help in trouble. Through repeated calls of “nakukimbilia” and “nakutazamia,” the song joins prayer, expectation, and praise. Its message rests on God’s nearness: day and night, the singer looks to Him for help and publicly celebrates His faithfulness.
