Kugukorera ni byiza,(To serve You, Lord, is joy,)

Mukiza wanjye. Iri turo ntuye,(My Savior dear. This rest You give me,)

Mwami, Rikunezeze(Lord, brings me delight)

Akir’ ubugingo bganjye,(Receive my life entire,)

N’ ubgawe, Yesu;(It's Yours, O Jesus;)

Kandi kubg’ ubuntu bgawe,(And through Your tender mercy,)

Undind’ ibibi(Keep me from all evil)

2.

Mwam’icyo nifuza cyane(Lord, what I desire most)

N’ ukwera nkawe:(Is faithfulness like Yours:)

Nta n’ ikindi nshaka,(There's nothing else I want,)

Yesu; Nzajya nkumvira,(Jesus; I will always obey You,)

3.

Mbe nk’intumwa zawe, Yesu,(Like Your apostles, Jesus,)

Njye ngukorera;(I long to serve You well;)

Ngukurikire, Muvunyi,(I'll follow You, my Champion,)

Nkubehw iteka(I'll serve You evermore)

4.

Singitinya n’amakuba(I will not fear the trials)

N’ ibyago bindi:(Nor other dangers great:)

Uwo nizeye ni Yesu(The One I trust is Jesus)

N’ agakiza ke(And His salvation sure)

5.

Twese tujy’imbere hamwe(Together we press forward)

Mu by’ inzira ye,(Along His chosen way,)

Turirimban’indirimbo,(Singing our songs together,)

Tunesh’iteka(We'll serve Him endlessly)
