Godwill Babette – Egemeo (Refuge) Lyrics

Roho wako mwenyezi (Your Spirit, Almighty)
Amenifanya jinsi nilivyo (Has made me the way I am)
Pumzi yako, uhai wangu (Your breath, my life)
Umefufua mifupa mikavu (You have resurrected the dry bones)
Uhai umenipa Baba yangu (You have given me life, My Father)
Umetuliza dhoruba (You have calmed the winds)
Wakati wa mawimbi (In the times of storms)

Refrain:
Moyo wangu na ukuiniue wakati (May my heart lift you every time)
Nafsi yangu ikuhimidi kila saa (My soul to praise You every hour)
(Repeat)

Egemeo Baba yangu umbali huu (My Refuge, this far You’ve brought me)
Ninashukuru, Mwamba (I am thankful, the Rock)
Dunia, mbingu ni mwashahidi (Heaven and earth are witnesses)
Umbali huu ni wewe Bwana wa mabwana (This far You have brought me Lord of Lords)
Kwa makubwa, madogo, umbali huu (In great and little things, thus far)
Ni wewe Bwana wa mabwana (It is because of You Lord of Lords)
Na mengi, machache, umbali huu (In many and in the few, thus far)
Ni wewe Bwana wa mabwana (It is because of You Lord of lords)

(Refrain)

Bridge:
Ninakuinua, inua aa (I lift You up, Lift up)
Umetenda mema, mema Bwana (You have done Good, Good Father)

Ni wewe (wewe) Shamma (You are always there)
Wewe ni Jehovah Shamma (You are the Lord who is there)
Ni wewe (wewe) Jireh (You are the Provider)
Wewe ni Jehovah Jireh (You are the Lord our Provider)
Ni wewe (wewe) Shamma (You are always there)
Wewe ni Jehovah Shamma (You are the Lord who is there)
Na bado wazidi kuwa Mungu umekuwa (And You still remain the Same God) x2
