Izithembiso Zenkosi

(Izithembiso zeNkosi zimi phakathi zona)
(Wawu qinisa ngegazi asithembisa khona
Undlula bonke (undlul' izulu nomhlaba)
(Kuze-ncibikal' izintaba khepha akyokwesaba omethembay' uJesu)
Yenza (yenza njego Abraham bekangase Zulwini uzilibal' izethembiso uqine eNkosini)
(Themban' ukuba kumnyama nxa lungasekh' uNyezi)

Ngoba (ngoba ngaphez' ukwamafu zikhon' iziNkanyezi)
Themba (themban' unxawuzingelwa kungenxa yenkolo yakho)
Ngoba (esithandweni somlilo unawe uThixo wakho)
Themba (thamban' uma uyashiywa awbathandayo ngoba niyakushiya kuJesu uyena uyanqoba0
Themba (themban' umasekuthini uzowushiya' umhlaba umthemb' uJesu elapha yena akay' ujabha)
Kundlula (kudlul' iZulu no mhlaba kuze kuncibikal' izintaba kepha akayokwesaba omethembayo uJesu)

Kundlula konke (kudlul' iZulu no mhlaba kuze kuncibikal' izintaba)
(Kephakay' okwesaba omethembayo uJesu)
Kundlula konke (kudlul' iZulu no mhlaba kuze kuncibikal' izintaba)
(Kepha akayokwesaba omethembayo uJesu)
Themban' ukuba kumnyama nxa lungasekh' uNyezi)

Ngoba (ngoba ngaphez' ukwamafu zikhon' iziNkanyezi)
Yenza (yenza njengo Abraham)
(Bekangase Zulwini uzibal' izethembiso uqine eNkosini
Kundlula konke (kudlul' iZulu no mhlaba sekuze kuncibikal' izintaba)
(Kepha akayokwesaba omethembayo uJesu)
Kundlula konke (kudlul' iZulu no mhlaba kuze kuncibikal' izintaba)
(Kepha akayokwesaba omethembayo uJesu)

Kundlula konke (kudlul' iZulu no mhlaba kuze kuncibikal' izintaba)
(Kepha akayokwesaba omethembayo uJesu)
(Amen hallelujah hallelujah!)

The Promises Of God Are Among Us

(The promises of God are among us)
(He strengthened us with the blood we promised him
He conquered all (He conquered heaven and earth)
(Until the mountains are cast down and the one who hopes in Jesus will not fear)
Make it (make it as Abraham did in heaven, forget the promises, believe in the Lord)
(Make a promise that in darkness when there is no moon)

Because (because above the clouds are the stars)
Hope (hope when you are persecuted for your religion)
Because (in the love of fire, your God is with you)
Hope (hope when you are forsaken by those you love, because they are leaving you to Jesus, he will conquer)
Hope (hope when you are on the verge of leaving the world, the promise of Jesus is here, he will not be ashamed)
Conquer (conquer heaven and earth until the mountains are cast down, but he who hopes in Jesus will not fear)

Conquer all (conquer heaven and earth until the mountains are cast down)
(Above the fear of those who hope in Jesus)
Conquer all (conquer heaven and earth until the mountains are cast down)
(But he who hopes in Jesus will not fear)
Make a promise that in darkness when there is no moon)

Because (because above the clouds are the stars)
Do it (do it like Abraham did)
(He was in heaven and counted the promises, believing in the Lord
Conquer all (conquer heaven and earth until the mountains are cast down)
(But he who hopes in Jesus will not fear)
Conquer all (conquer heaven and earth until the mountains are cast down)
(But he who hopes in Jesus will not fear)

Conquer all (conquer heaven and earth until the mountains are cast down)
(But he who hopes in Jesus will not fear)
(Amen hallelujah hallelujah!)
