Kiswahili Lyrics
Bwana atawapigania nanyi
The Lord will fight for you
Mtanyamaza kimya kimya
And you will remain completely silent
Kimya kimya
Quietly… completely silent
Hata wakikimbia
Even if they run
Bwana anatupigania
The Lord fights for us
Kimya kimya kimya
Quietly, quietly, quietly
Bwana atawapigania nanyi
The Lord will fight for you
Mtanyamaza kimya
You will remain silent
Kimya kimya
Completely silent
Hata wakikimbia
Even if they run
Bwana anatupigania
The Lord fights for us
Kimya kimya kimya
Quietly, quietly, quietly
Mbele mbele
Forward, forward
Mbele mbele mbele
Forward, forward, forward
Bwana atawapigania…
The Lord will fight for you…
Nanyi mtanyamaza kimya kimya…
And you will remain completely silent…
Kimya kimya…
Completely silent…
Bwana anatupigania…
The Lord fights for us…
Mbele mbele…
Forward, forward…
(Repeat chorus as led)
Repeat the chorus as the worship leader directs
