Gushimisha · 5 verses
Nkuko Mose yamanits’ inzoka ku giti,
Abarembejwe bakayireba,
Bagakir’ uburibge, bakaba bazima
Kubg’ imbabazi z’ Uwiteka,
Ni ko na Yesu
Yatumanikiwe ku Musaraba kera:
Tumurebe, tumwiringire
(As Moses lifted up the serpent on the pole,)
(The bitten ones looked at it,)
(And received medicine, and they lived)
(Because of the mercy of the Lord,)
(So too Jesus)
(Was lifted up on the Cross long ago:)
(Let us look to Him, let us trust in Him)
Mutim’ ushavuye, reb’ Uwagupfiriye;
Reba Yesu wakumanikiwe !
Munyabyah’ umutumbir’ aragukiz’ ubu,
Umureb’ arakiza rwose !
Reba, wizere !
Kubabarirwa kwawe kuv’ i Gologota:
Reba, reba ku Musaraba
(Troubled heart, see the One who died for you;)
(See Jesus who was lifted up for you!)
(Desperate sinner, He saves you now,)
(If you look at Him, He saves completely!)
(Look, believe!)
(Your forgiveness comes from Golgotha:)
(Look, look to the Cross)
N’ iki cyatumy’ Umwana w’ Iman’ ababazwa ?
Umv’ icyatumy’ abambga ku giti,
Kand’ icyatumye yambikw’ ikamba ry’ amahwa:
Ni kubgawe n’ ibyaha byawe !
Reba, wizere !
Dor’ urupfu n’ urwe, nahw imyandu n’ iyawe:
Reba, reba ku Musaraba
(What caused the Son of God to suffer?)
(Hear what caused Him to be nailed to the pole,)
(And what caused Him to wear the crown of thorns:)
(It is because of you and your sins!)
(Look, believe!)
(Behold, the death is His, the debt is yours:)
(Look, look to the Cross)
Naho warir’ ukicuz’ ukanababara,
Ntibyarih’ ibicumuro byawe
Dor’ impongan’ ikwiriy’ ibyaha wakoze
N’ amaraso ya Yesu masa
Reba, wizere !
Wizer’ Uwakubambiw’ arakurokora:
Reba, reba ku Musaraba
(Though you weep and cry and suffer,)
(That would not be your atonement)
(Behold, only the blood of Jesus)
(Can pay for the sins you committed)
(Look, believe!)
(Believe in the One crucified, He delivers you:)
(Look, look to the Cross)
Yagukirishije ya mibyimba yagize;
Ni na We gukiranuka kwawe
Yakubeshejeho, war’ uwo kurimbuka:
Wakir’ ubgo bugingw aguha
Reba, wizere !
Yes’ ubg’ atagipfa, tuzabanaho na we:
Reba, reba ku Musaraba
(He achieved the suffering He endured;)
(From Him also is your purity)
(He accomplished it, you were the one to benefit:)
(Receive that eternal gift He gives)
(Look, believe!)
(Jesus who no longer dies, we will live with Him:)
(Look, look to the Cross)
