Lyrics
Humwinua mnyonge kutoka mavumbini
he raises the poor from the dust
Na mhitaji kutoka jaani
and lifts the needy from wilderness
Na kumketisha na wakuu
and make him sit with the heads of his people
Meza moja na wafalme
one table with princes
Usilie tena Bwana yu nawe
dont cry any more, God is with you
Hutaitwa masikini tena
you will never be called poor any more
Usihuzunike Bwana Yesu yu nawe
don't worry for the Lord is with you
Hautadharauliwa tena
you will no longer be despised
Bwana ni mkuu juu ya mataifa yote
The Lord is the greatest over all nations
Na utukufu wake ni juu ya mbingu yote
and his glory is over the heavens
Huweka nyumba ya mwanamke aliyetasa
he sets the house of the barren woman
Awe mama ya watoto wenye furaha
be mother to happy babies
Jina la Bwana na lihimidiwe
let his name be exalted
Tangu leo na milele yote
from today and forevermore
Usiogope adui ee
never be afraid of the enemy
Yesu anakulinda
Jesus protects you
Anakulinda Yesu,
Jesus protects you,
anakulinda
He protects you
Mungu muweza yote
Great mighty God
mtetezi wa wanyonge
the defender of the weak
Walioteswa na dunia
persecuted by the world
Ameahidi kukulinda
He promised to protect you
ahadi zake ni kweli na amini
His promises are yes and amen
Twasoma Daniel aliyetupwa kwenye tundu la simba
as we learn through Daniel who were thrown in the lions' den
Mungu aliyafunga makanwa ya simba
God shut the lions' mouth
Hawakumdhuru, hawakumdhuru
they didn't harm him
Tushukuru neema imefunuliwa
let us be grateful for the grace is revealed
Enzi zile za wafalme na watawala wa kidunia
those ages of kigs and rulers in the world
Watu walilazimishwa kuabudu na kuisujudia miungu
people were forced to worship gods
Meshack, Shadraki na Abednego
Meshack, Shadrach, and Abednego
Walitupwa katika tanuru liwakalo moto
they were thrown in the furnance
Sababu walikataa kuabudu sanamu Ya mfalme, ya mfalme
because they refused to worship the statue of the king
Neema neema
grace is revealed
neema imefunuliwa
grace is revealed
Tunatawala milele
we rule and reign forever
tunamiliki
we own everything
Tunatawala, tunamiliki
we rule and reign, we own every thing
