Chorus


Kama si mkono wako

(If it wasn't for Your hand)

Kama si nguvu zako Baba

(If it wasn't for Your strength, Father)

Mbona ningeshapotea

(Surely, I would have been lost)

Kama si mkono wako

(If it wasn't for Your hand)

Kama si nguvu zako Baba

(If it wasn't for Your strength, Father)

Mbona ningeshapotea

(Surely, I would have been lost)


Kama...

(If...)

Kama si mkono wako

(If it wasn't for Your hand)

Kama si nguvu zako Baba

(If it wasn't for Your strength, Father)

Mbona ningeshapotea

(Surely, I would have been lost)

Kama si mkono wako

(If it wasn't for Your hand)

Kama si nguvu zako Baba

(If it wasn't for Your strength, Father)

Mbona ningeshapotea

(Surely, I would have been lost)




Verse 1


Ahsante

(Thank You)

Hata kwa hili gumu naliweza umejua

(Even through this difficulty, You knew I would make it)

Na yote yaliyonikuta siku yataisha unajua

(And You know that everything that has happened to me will one day come to an end)

Nikumbatie

(Embrace me)

Niwe salama na nisinyauke najua

(So I can be safe and not wither, I know)

Na mkate

(And daily bread)

Ni wewe unanipa kila siku najua

(You are the one who gives it to me every day, I know)


Mungu we ndo A, B, C

(God, You are my A, B, C)

Mi sinaga Plan B

(I don't have a Plan B)

Na kwenye One, Two, Three

(And in one, two, three)

We ndo wangu kimbilio

(You are my refuge)




Pre-Chorus


Mungu Baba naomba nilinde (Aaaaah)

(Father God, I pray that You protect me)

Naomba nilinde (Aaaaah)

(I pray that You protect me)

Wanaotamani nianguke ni wengi

(Those who wish for my downfall are many)

Naomba nilinde

(I pray that You protect me)


Mungu Baba naomba nilinde (Aaaaah)

(Father God, I pray that You protect me)

Naomba nilinde (Aaaaah)

Naomba nilinde na kama...

(I pray that You protect me, and if...)




Chorus


Kama si mkono wako

(If it wasn't for Your hand)

Kama si nguvu zako Baba

(If it wasn't for Your strength, Father)

Mbona ningeshapotea

(Surely, I would have been lost)

Kama si mkono wako

(If it wasn't for Your hand)

Kama si nguvu zako Baba

(If it wasn't for Your strength, Father)

Mbona ningeshapotea

(Surely, I would have been lost)

(Kompaaaah!)




Verse 2


Na najua

(And I know)

Usiponilinda mi kujilinda siwezi

(If You don't protect me, I cannot protect myself)

Najua

(I know)

Usiponiongoza mi kujiongoza siwezi

(If You don't guide me, I cannot guide myself)

Na kuna hao wanaokesha bure, staki kuwa miongoni

(And there are those who stay awake in vain, I don't want to be among them)

Na kuna wanaotegemea shule, wala mimi sikusoma nao

(And there are those who rely on education, but I did not study with them)


Mungu we ndo A, B, C

(God, You are my A, B, C)

Mi sinaga Plan B

(I don't have a Plan B)

Na kwenye One, Two, Three

(And in one, two, three)

We ndo wangu kimbilio

(You are my refuge)




Pre-Chorus


Mungu Baba naomba nilinde (Aaaaah)

(Father God, I pray that You protect me)

Mungu Baba naomba nilinde (Aaaaah)

(Father God, I pray that You protect me)

Wanaotamani nianguke ni wengi

(Those who wish for my downfall are many)

Naomba nilinde

(I pray that You protect me)


Mungu Baba naomba nilinde (Aaaaah)

(Father God, I pray that You protect me)

Naomba nilinde (Aaaaah)

(I pray that You protect me)

Wanaotamani nianguke ni wengi

Naomba nilinde na kama...

(I pray that You protect me, and if...)
