Lyrics
Dhambi zangu mimi zimenifunga
Ninaja tena na makosa
Ninakuja kwako uniokoe
Unisafishe unitakase Bwana
Dhambi zangu mimi zimenifunga
Ninaja tena na makosa
Ninakuja kwako uniokoe
Unisafishe unitakase Bwana
Dhambi zangu mimi zimenifunga
Ninaja tena na makosa
Ninakuja kwako uniokoe
Unisafishe unitakase Bwana
Naja kwako nikubali nitakase
Mimi mwenye dhambi nyingi
Nikubali nitakase
Naja kwako nikubali nitakase
Mimi mwenye dhambi nyingi
Nikubali nitakase

Meaning & Inspiration
“Naja Kwako Bwana” is a prayer of confession and cleansing. The singer acknowledges being bound by sin and comes before the Lord carrying faults rather than hiding them. Repeated requests for rescue, washing, and holiness keep the focus on God’s mercy. The phrase “Mimi mwenye dhambi nyingi” presents the worshiper without excuses, while “Naja kwako” expresses the decision to seek restoration from the Lord.
The song’s appeal closely reflects Psalm 51:2, where the psalmist asks God to wash away iniquity and cleanse sin. It also corresponds with 1 John 1:9, which connects confession with God’s faithfulness to forgive and purify. Repetition gives the prayer a penitential character, allowing the same plea to be voiced with persistence and humility. The lyric does not treat cleansing as self-improvement; salvation and sanctification are requested from God, making dependence on divine grace the song’s central theme.
