Sitaogopa (I Will Not Be Afraid) Lyrics Evelyn Wanjiru

(Sung in Swahili)

Bwana unafurahisha moyo wangu (Lord, You gladden my heart)
Ninayo sababu ya kuimba (I have a reason to sing)
Pumzi umenipa, furaha ukanipa (You’ve given me breath, given me joy)
Dhambi zangu kaondoa (You have wiped away my sins)
(Repeat)

Ndio maana nasema (That is why I say)

Refrain:
Yesu amenibariki (Jesus has blessed me)
Yesu ameninua (Jesus has lifted me)
Nikiwa naye moyoni (With Him in my heart)
Sitaogopa kamwe (I shall never be afraid) (Repeat)
Eh, eh, eh, sitaogopa kamwe (Eh, eh, eh, I will never be afraid) x3

(Refrain)

Bwana ni taa ya miguu yangu (The Lord is the light onto my path)
Mwanga wa njia yangu (My light and my path)
Anilindaye hasinizi wala halali (The one who watches me does not sleep)
Yu pamoja nami (He is with me)
Wewe ni mwaminifu, wakati wote (He is faithful, at all times)

(Refrain)

When God is on my side, I don’t have to be stressed
I don’t have to be troubled
When God is by my side, I don’t have to be stressed
I don’t have to be troubled
What I just do, I put a dance, a song of praise
And I just swag
Knowing that God, Is protecting me
He is covering me, He is always by my side

(Refrain)
