Only You Lyrics

Iyee mmhh eh, iye mm eeh (Aaah)
Iyee mmhh eh (aaaah)
Hmmmm

Maisha yangu
Yana wewe Mungu
Tumaini la moyo
Kwako mim nimeliweka
Msaada Wa karibu bwana
Nitakusifu wewe tu
Na nitakutuza
Nitapolemewa na mizigo
Magonjwa na mateso
Sina wasiwasi tena
Nipitapo uvuli wa mauti bwana
Gongo lako na fimbo yako
Vinanifariji bwana aaah

Umenifanya wa thamani (eeeeh)
Umenitoa matopeni (eeeh)
Umenikung'uta mavumbii (eeeeh)
Ukanibariki
Umenifanya hodari (eeehe)
Ukanipa ujasiri (eeeh)
Niliyekuwa sifai
Umenibariki

[CHORUS]
(Only you)
Only you (Jesus)
Only you
Elishadai (Only you)
Oooh Yeah (My god)
Adonai (Only you)
Only you Jesus (Jesus)
Ni wewe unanitosha mimi (only You)
Ni wewe unanifaa daima (my God)
Only you

Kila njia ya mtu ni sawa
Machoni pake mwenyewe
Bali bwana hupima mioyo
Mawazo tuliyonayo nafahamu
 naweza kujiona watakatifu
Ila mbele zake hasara
Roho ni wadhaifu uuh
Tujinyenyekeze mbele zake
Tupate thawabu milele
Kwa kumtumikia yeye tu

Yeye anaponyaa
Anaokoa
Halo halo  haloo
Kwangu ni mwaminifu
Huyu yesu
Nitapolemewa na mizigo
Magonjwa na mateso
Sina wasiwasi tena
Nipitapo uvuli wa mauti bwana
Gongo lako na fimbo yako
Vinanifarijii bwana aaah

Umenifanya wa thamani (eeeeh)
Umenitoa matopeni (eeeh)
Umenikung'uta mavumbi (eeeeh)
Ukanibariki
Umenifanya hodari (eeehe)
Ukanipa ujasiri (eeeh)
Niliyekuwa sifai (eeeeh)
Umenibariki (yeah)

[CHORUS]
(Only you)
Only you … Jesus
Simba na Yuda
Only you uuh My God
Hakuna kama wewe (only you)
Nitang’ang ana na wewe (Jesus)
Jesus (only you)
Ni wewe pekee yako tu (My God)
Eeeh (Only you)

Mwingi wa rehema eeeh (only you)
Hakuna kama wewe (My God)
Mwenye Kutoa buree (only you)
Unayetupenda (Jesus)

Aaaah eeehhh (only you)
Yesu wangu (My God)
Baba yangu

Only You

Only You Song Meaning, Biblical Reference and Inspiration

Walter Chilambo's song "Only You" was released with its video on August 29, 2020, presenting a heartfelt declaration of faith and dependence on God. The track focuses on the central theme that God alone is sufficient and indispensable in the life of the believer, serving as the sole source of hope, strength, and comfort through life's challenges. The lyrics open with an acknowledgment of placing complete trust in God, recognizing Him as the closest helper and the one deserving of all praise.

The song profoundly articulates the experience of facing difficulties, such as burdens, sicknesses, and trials, stating that in these moments, fear is dispelled. It references walking through the valley of the shadow of death, finding solace and reassurance in God's presence and guidance, represented by His rod and staff. This imagery strongly echoes the themes found in Psalm 23:4, emphasizing God's comforting presence and protection even in the darkest times.

A significant part of the song highlights the transformative power of God's grace. The lyrics describe being made valuable, lifted from a low state ("matopeni"), cleaned ("kung'uta mavumbi"), and blessed. This transformation includes being made strong and courageous, despite feeling unworthy before. This narrative of rescue and transformation aligns with scriptural teachings on redemption and God's ability to choose and empower those the world might deem insignificant, referencing concepts found in passages like Ephesians 2:4-5 and 1 Corinthians 1:27-28.

The chorus repeatedly emphasizes "Only You," addressing God by powerful names like Elishadai (God Almighty) and Adonai (Lord). This reiteration underscores the song's core message: God is the exclusive and complete source of fulfillment and suitability. The declaration "Ni wewe unanitosha mimi" (You alone are enough for me) and "Ni wewe unanifaa daima" (You alone are suitable for me always) directly reflects the conviction of God's all-sufficiency, a truth reflected in verses such as Philippians 4:19.

Further delving into the relationship with God, the lyrics touch upon the human tendency to view one's own ways as right, contrasting this with God's ability to discern the heart and intentions, as stated in Proverbs 21:2 and 1 Samuel 16:7. The song encourages humility before God, acknowledging human weakness and the promise of eternal reward for serving Him alone. It speaks to God's attributes as healer and savior, affirming His faithfulness to the singer, resonating with truths found in Psalms 103:3 and 1 Corinthians 1:9. The song also acknowledges Jesus as the "Simba wa Yuda" (Lion of Judah), a title found in Revelation 5:5, further expanding on His power and identity. The repeated declarations in the latter part of the song, calling God merciful, full of grace, and the one who gives freely and loves us, reinforce the depth of His character and the singer's devotion.
