Song Lyrics:
Nkosi, bhek’ ibandla lakho, (Lord look at your church)Uyabona selomile; (see how thirsty she is)
Limathise ngomsa wakho; (Quench her thirst by your grace)
Konk’ okwethu kuphelile. (All our own strength is gone)
Usizwise lawamandla (make your power felt)
Abafundi bathenjiswa, (that same power you promised your disciples)
Silifuze lelobandla (let us be like that church)
Elaqala, labusiswa. (The first church, which was blessed)
Thel’ uMoya oyiNgcwele (Pour out your Holy Spirit)Phezu kwabantwana bakho! (Upon your children)
Vus’ owakho umsebenzi, (raise your work)
Libatshazw’ igama lakho. (Let your Name be praised)
Ngegama lakho Jesu kuguqa phansi konke (At Your name, Jesus, everything bows down)
Kutuwsa ubukhosi, nobungqongqoshe bakho (Awed by Your majesty and Your —–)
Alikh’elinye futhi elihle njengelakho (There is no other name as beautiful as Yours)Kuyilo nje kuphela esingasinda ngalo (It is the only one by which we may be saved)
Liyisihlangu sethu esingavika ngaso (It is our shield, by which we can shield ourselves)Nxa sihlaselwa yimpi kasatane elwa nathi (When we are at war with Satan fighting us)
