Ubw’ impanda z’ UwIteka zizavuzwa mw ijuru,(When the trumpets of the LORD will sound in heaven,)

Habay’urya munsi mwiz’ uhebuje,(There will be that wonderful, surpassing day,)

Abakijijwe bo mwisi bose bazamwItaba,(All the saved from the world will answer Him,)

Abakoranirije mw ijuru rye(Gathering them in His heaven)

Ubw’ aza. . . . z’ ahamaga. . . ra,(When He comes... calling...)

AmazI. . . na y’ abe bo. . . se,(The names... of all His own...)

Mu Gita. . . bo cy’ ubugi. . . ngo,(In the Book... of Life...)

Nzi ko nzumv’ izina ryanjye, nkitaba(I know I will hear my name and answer)

Uwo munsi, hazazurw’ abapfiriye muri We,(On that day, those who died in Him will rise,)

Bave mu bituro nk’ Umucunguzi(Coming from graves like the Redeemer)

Bazahurira mw ijuru n’ abazaba bariho(They will meet in heaven with those still alive)

Nzaba mpari nanjye—-sinzaburayo !(I will be there too—I will not miss it!)

Yesu. Databuja, nzamukorera, ntacogora:(Jesus, my Master, I will serve Him without tiring:)

Maz’ imirimo yo mw is’ ajy’ ampa, ni(And when the work He gives me on earth is)

nyirangIza(finished)

Azampamagar’ angeze mw ijuru(He will call me and bring me to heaven)
