1.

Urutare rw’ Imana

N’ ingab’ idukingira

Duce ku Musaraba,

Tunesh’ Umwanzi wacu

Tugende mu misozi,

Tubabwir’ ibya Yesu:

Maze, na bo bakizwe

Be kujya mu muriro,

(The Rock of God)

(And the fortress that shelters us)

(Let us flee to the Cross,)

(Let us defeat our enemy)

(Let us go to the mountains,)

(Let us tell them about Jesus:)

(Then, they too may be saved)

(From going to the fire,)

2.

Isi yacu yuzuye

Agahinda n’ ibyaha;

Satani yagwijije

Abo yahumishye

(Our world is full)

(Of sorrow and sins;)

(Satan has brought down)

(Those he deceived)

3.

Bene wacu bo mu ngo

Ntabwo bazi Krisito:

Baribaz’ ukw ameze

No gukizw’ icy’ ari cyo

(Our people in the household)

(Do not know Christ:)

(May they know what it means)

(To be saved and what it is)

4.

Abahisemo Yesu,

Nimuze, dutambuke,

Twerekan’ ubuntu bwe

N’ amaraso twozemo

(Those who choose Jesus,)

(Come, let us march,)

(Let us show His grace)

(And the blood we were washed in)

5.

Kand’ abishushanije

Ntibazajya mw ijuru,

Kerets’ abakijijwe,

Buhagijw’ amaraso

(And those who pretend)

(Will not go to heaven,)

(Except the saved ones,)

(Cleansed by the blood)

6.

Abafit’ idini nsa,

Bakayoberwa Yesu,

Ni bo batubabaza:

Ntibazajya mw ijuru !

(Those who have false religion,)

(But are led astray by Jesus,)

(Are the ones who hurt us:)

(They will not go to heaven!)

7.

Nshuti, warahemutse;

Yes’ uramubabaje

Dore, wamuvuyeho,

Wibagirw’ ubuntu bwe

(Friend, you have grown cold;)

(You have hurt Jesus)

(Behold, you have turned away from Him,)

(You have forgotten His grace)

8.

Nanjy’ Iman’ inkomeze,

Ne kujya mubabaza;

Nukw amfash’ anyobore,

Nite ku rukundo rwe

(May God strengthen me too,)

(From hurting Him;)

(So help me and guide me,)

(To rely on His love)
