Akwaba Se Ndivuma

Akwaba se ndivuma,
Nangentliziyo yam,
Ukwahlukana nayo,
Inkohlakalo yami;
Ndisuke ndiye Kuye,
OngumSindisi wami.

Akwaba ndinokuva
Usizi emoyeni,
Olona lusingisa
Kwa selunguqkweni,
Luhamba ngaloo ndlela
Iphela emgcobeni.

Akwaba ndinokholo
Lughub' umxhelo wam.
Ndibambelele Kuye
Ofel' ityala lami,
Ndihlale ndithembela
Kuloo mHlaw'leli Wami.

Akwaba ndinamandla,
Avela enKosini,
Ndikwaale okomhlaba,
Ndibeke ezulwini.
Ndivuselele, Thixo,
Ndiphume ebubini. Amen.

Hymn 170 Xhosa.

Welcome Home, My Soul

Welcome home, my soul,
With all my heart,
To part from you,
My greatest sorrow;
I'll go to Him,
Who is my Savior.

Welcome, since I find
Sorrow in my soul,
A burden too heavy
For me to bear,
I travel along that path
That leads to the grave.

Welcome, in my faith
I find my help.
I cling to Him
Who will bear my burden,
I rest in hope
In my Redeemer.

Welcome, for I have strength,
From the Lord it comes,
I can conquer the trials,
And lay them at His feet.
Revive me, O Lord,
And deliver me from evil. Amen.
