Rose Muhando – Mungu Wa Mapendo (God of Love) Lyrics
Nini kitanitenganisha (na upendo wa Mungu Baba)
(What can separate me, from the Love of God the Father)
Ikiwa ni dhiki au njaa (Havitananitenga naye Baba)
(Neither hardship nor famine, shall separate me from the Father )
Mauti, upanga, na dhihaka (Havitananitenga naye Baba)
(Death, war and danger, will not separate me from the Father)
(Repeat)
Chorus:
Sina hofu sibabaiki (I’m not afraid, not worried)
Kwake yeye nime/nitashinda (I have/shall won/win)
Milele yote nime/nitashinda (Forever I have/will win/won)
Tena zaidi ya kushinda (Even more than win)
Kwake yeye aliyenipenda (In Him who loved me)
(Repeat)
Kwenye zamu yangu nitasimama (When my turn comes I shall stand)
Kwa miguu yangu nitasimama (On my feet I shall stand)
Nione Bwana atakavyonijibu mimi (To see what the Lord shall say to me)
Kwa habari ya kulalamika kwangu (Regarding my persecutions)
Bwana aliniambia neno hili (As the Lord had promised me)
“Usiogope maneno yao (“Do not fear their words,)
Usitetemeke mbele yao, (Do not tremble before them)
usifadhaike mbele yao (Do not despair before them )
Maana imeandikwa, kwa ajili yako ninauawa (As it is written, I was killed for your sake)
kama kondoo wa kuchinjwa, kifo nimehesabiwa (Like a lamb to slaughter, in your death you were counted)
Kifo nimehesabiwa, mimi sibabaiki (In my death I have been counted, I am not worried)
Bridge:
Shetani usinisumbue (Shetani usinisumbue) (Satan, do not bother me)
Wala usinibababishe (Wala usinibababishe) (Do not worry me)
Funga kinywa ukatoweke (Funga kinywa ukatoweke) (Be quiet and begone)
Nyamaza kimya ukapotee (Kwa jina la Yesu ukatoweke) (Be silent and be gone in the name of Jesus)
Nyamaza kimya ukapotee (Nyamaza kimya ukapotee) (Be quiet and begone)
(Chorus)
Milele neno la Mungu limehakikishwa (Forever the word of God has been established)
Tena ni ngome kwa wamwaminio (It is a fortresses to the believers)
Tena ni ngao kwa wamwitao Baba (Also a shield for those who call him Father)
Kabla ijawa misingi ya dunia, (Before the foundation of the world)
Yeye huyu alikuweko (He was here)
(?), muumba wa utukufu ([?], Creator of glory)
Na utakaso wa dhambi, (?) (And the cleansor of sin, (?))
Nami kwake ni wa mwana x2, ni wa mwana (I belong to the son)
(Bridge) + (Chorus)
Asifiwe Mungu wa mapendo (God of love be praised)
Asifiwe Mungu wa huruma (God of mercy be praised)
Asifiwe Mungu wa amani (God of peace be praised)
Asifiwe Mungu wa mapendo (God of love be praised)
Asifiwe Mungu wa mapendo (God of love be praised)
Ametenda maajabu, (He has done amazing things)
dunia ishangilie (Let the world rejoice)
Visiwa(?) vitoe nyimbo, (All islands give praise)
Asifiwe Mungu wa mapendo (God of love be praised)
Mungua chukua heshima yako (Gpd receive your honor)
Mungu chukua utukufu wako (God receive your praise)
Asifiwe Mungu wa mapendo (God of love be praised)
Ametenda maajabu, (He has done amazing things)
dunia ishangilie (Let the world rejoice)
Visiwa(?) vitoe nyimbo, (All islands give praise)
Asifiwe Mungu wa mapendo (God of love be praised)
(Repeat)
