Lyrics
Ni wewe Yesu wa kuabudiwa
Ni wewe Yesu wa kuabudiwa
Utukufu na heshima
Vina wewe Yesu
Ni wewe Yesu wa kuabudiwa
Ni wewe Yesu wa kuabudiwa
Ni wewe Yesu wa kuabudiwa
Utukufu na heshima
Vina wewe Yesu
Ni wewe Yesu wa kuabudiwa
"Ufalme wako ni ufalme usiotikisika
Hauna mwisho Bwana wala hauna mwanzo
Utukufu na nguvu na enzi ni vyako Yesu"
Ni wewe Yesu wa kuabudiwa
Ni wewe Yesu wa kuabudiwa
Utukufu na heshima
Vina wewe Yesu
Ni wewe Yesu wa kuabudiwa
Ni wewe Yesu wa kuinuliwa
Ni wewe Yesu wa kuinuliwa
Utukufu na heshima
Vina wewe Yesu
Ni wewe Yesu wa kuinuliwa

Meaning & Inspiration
Ni Wewe Yesu is a focused Swahili song of adoration that declares Jesus alone worthy of worship and exaltation. Glory, honor, strength, and authority are attributed to him, keeping every section centered on his supremacy. The repeated refrain does not introduce a narrative; instead, it sustains a confession that worship belongs to Jesus and that his rule surpasses every earthly power.
The song’s description of an unshakable kingdom closely echoes the language of Hebrews, where believers receive a kingdom that cannot be shaken. Its claim that Christ’s reign has no end also aligns with biblical descriptions of God’s everlasting kingdom. As the lyric moves from “wa kuabudiwa” to “wa kuinuliwa,” worship and exaltation remain inseparable. The result is a concise act of reverence in which Jesus is honored as the eternal King, worthy of glory and praise rather than merely admired for temporary help.
