42. Mwami wanjye, nshaka kuba

Uwakijijwe nawe;(One who is saved by You;)

Nake kubgawe wenyine(May I be Yours alone)

Kuk’ ur’ umucyo wanjye;(For You are my light;)

Mu kwitonda kwanjye numve(In my vigilance may I hear)

Urukundo rw’ ukuri,(Your true love,)

No mu mwijima w’ ijoro,(Even in the darkness of night,)

Nkwibuke, Mwami Yesu(I remember You, Lord Jesus)

Urumuri kubgawe,(A light for You,)

Ngo njye mmurikir’ ab’ isi(So I may shine for the people of earth)

Baheze mu mwijima(Who are in darkness)

Nakire mu nzira zabo,(When I meet them in their ways,)

Bakuri kure cyane(While they are far away)

Mbageze ku Mwami Yesu,(I will bring them to Lord Jesus,)

Ngo na bo bamwizere(So they too may believe in Him)

Uvug’ ijambo ryawe,(One who speaks Your word,)

Namamaze, Databuja,(And proclaim, O Father,)

Yuko watubambiwe:(That You were crucified:)

Abari mu rupfu rubi,(Those who are in evil death,)

Mbabgir’ ikibakiza,(I tell them of salvation,)

Mpumuriz’ abababaye;(I comfort those who are suffering;)

Nyobore bos’ i Bgami(May I lead them all to the Lord)
