God Of Mercy

11/09/2007

God of mercy and compassion, look with pity upon me
Father let me call Thee Father 'tis this child returns to Thee

Jesus Lord, I ask for mercy, let me not implore in vain
All my sins I now detest them, never will I sin again.


By my sins I have deserved death, and endless misery
Hell with all its pains and torments, for all eternity.

Jesus Lord, I ask for mercy, let me not implore in vain
All my sins I now detest them, never will I sin again.


By my sins I have abandoned, right and claim to Heaven above
Where the Saints rejoice for ever, in a boundless sea of love.

Jesus Lord, I ask for mercy, let me not implore in vain
All my sins I now detest them, never will I sin again.


See our Savior bleeding, dying, on the cross of Calvary
To that cross my sins have nailed Him, yet He bleeds and dies for me.

Jesus Lord, I ask for mercy, let me not implore in vain
All my sins I now detest them, never will I sin again.

Can anyone please post the swahili version of this song? The translation is not accurate at all but the lyrics to it are so much more powerful I feel...

Here is some of what I remember from my old days at catholic boarding school in Mumias kenya;

Nisireegee moyoni
Nisitokwe machozi.
Nikimkumbuka munguwe,
kwa yake makombozi

Chorus
Mtoa Roho msalabani,
mtaka kufa mwenyewe,
mtu huyu ana nini
nguvu zake ni haba...

The music actually comes from an Arabic Good Friday Hymn: Wa Habibi (my beloved)cf. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hduXnCao4I

Yesu, Bin Mariamu,
Bwana wa uzima,
Umefika kwetu
Humu Kanisani.

Kwanza tainama,
Tukukuabudu,
Mungu Mwanadamu
Madhbahuni petu.

Kisha twasujudu
Tukiwaombea
Ndugu zetu pia,
Wale wa kuzimu.

Hawo walukuwa,
Kwanza kama sisi,
Uliwachagua
Wawe watu wako.

Hapa duniani
Walikuungama,
Nawe, Bwana wao,
Usiwasahau.

Walisumbuliwa
Sana na Shetani,
Taabu zimekwisha,
Wape kustarehe.

Kwenye vita kali
Kweli walitiwa
Majeraha mengi,
Bwana, uwaponye.

Upungufu wote,
Doa na nawaa,
Dam yako, Yesu,
Iwaondolee.
