Sikufahamu msalaba,
Wala aliyenifilia,
Msalabani*.
Rehema bure na neema,
Samaha nalo nilipewa,
Ndipo aliponifungua
Msalabani.
Kwa neno lake Bwana Mungu,
Nilijiona mimi mwovu,
Nikageuka na kutubu,
Msalabani.
Rehema bure na neema,
Samaha nalo nilipewa,
Ndipo aliponifungua
Msalabani.
Yote kwa Yesu namtolea,
Ndiye mfalme wa pekee sasa,
Kwa furaha nitamwimbia,
Msalabani.
Rehema bure na neema,
Samaha nalo nilipewa,
Ndipo aliponifungua
Msalabani.
Jinsi pendo lilivyo kuu,
Neema ilishuswa toka juu,
Alitufanyia wokovu
Msalabani.
Samaha nalo nilipewa,
Ndipo aliponifungua
Msalabani.
*Some versions of this song use the words "Kwa Kalvari" instead of "Msalabani" on the last line of the chorus and also as the last line on all stanzas. "Kwa Kalvari" means "At Calvary" while "Msalabani" means "At the Cross". We used the version with "Msalabani" because it is the popular version in our locale.
