Agakiza · 3 verses
Ump’ akanya, Yesu, nze nkwegere,
Kuko naniriwe mur’ iyi si
Ndetse no mu gihe cy’ i ntambara,
Na bgo Mwami, ujy’ ump’ amahoro
Ump’ akanya, Yesu, nze nkwegere,
Kuk’ umwijim’ ukabije mw isi
Icyo nkeneye n’ ukukwegera
Kugira ngo numv’ ijambo ryawe
(Give me a moment, Jesus, let me draw near to You,)
(Because I am weary in this world)
(Even in times of warfare,)
(Still, Lord, give me peace)
(Give me a moment, Jesus, let me draw near to You,)
(Because the darkness is intense in the world)
(What I need is to draw near to You)
(So that I may hear Your word)
Ump’ akanya, Yesu, nze nkwegere
Mu bingerageza n’ amakuba
Ni wowe buhungiro nizeye
Mu gihe cy’ akaga mur’ iyi si
(Give me a moment, Jesus, let me draw near to You)
(In trials and troubles)
(You are the refuge I trust)
(In times of danger in this world)
Ump’ akanya, Yesu, nze nkwegere
Kuko wanyikorerey’ ibyaha
Ndumva nshaka kukubwira byose
Kuko, Mwami, nizeye k’ unyumva
(Give me a moment, Jesus, let me draw near to You)
(Because You atoned for my sins)
(I want to tell You everything)
(Because, Lord, I believe You hear me)
