[Xhosa] Unshaken

Lyrics

[Intro — Gentle, Reverent, Building]

Oh-oh-oh, Somandla,  
Ngaphezu komhlaba, phezu kwelanga.  
Xa konke kuqala ukuwa,  
Isihlalo sakho sihleli ngaphezulu kwazo zonke.

Hallelujah, hallelujah,  
Ulawula ngonaphakade.  
Hallelujah, hallelujah,  
Isiphephelo sethu esingaguqukiyo.



[Verse 1 — Refuge in the Storm]

KuWe, Nkosi, umphefumlo wam uphumla,  
Isibambiso sam xa ukholo lwam luxinzelekile.  
Kutheni ndibaleka kwiindawo ezikude,  
Njengeentaka ezisaba ubumnyama?

Xa ingozi ithetha, "Baleka,"  
Ubukho bakho buyaqina ndihlale.  
Ukukholosa kwam akukubabaleki,  
Kodwa kuWe, Nkosi, ukukhanya kwam okusindisayo.



[Verse 2 — Arrows in the Darkness]

Bona abangendawo bebhija izaphetha,  
Iintolo zabo zijolise apho kungaziwa khona.  
Zifihle ngobusuku obumnyama,  
Bazingela iintliziyo ezihamba ngqo.

Xa inyaniso isongelwa, ubulungisa butyholwe,  
Xa zonke iziseko zibonakala zindala,  
Iintliziyo ezilungileyo zikhala, "Yintoni esele?"  
Amandla akho aphezulu asaqhubeka.



[Pre-Chorus — Faith Above Fear]

Xa umhlaba ungcangcazela phantsi kwethu,  
Xa ihlabathi lijikilela,  
Uhlala unyanisekile ngonaphakade,  
Lonke ithemba lethu lifumaneka kuWe.



[Chorus — Unshaken]

Akaguquki, akaguquki,  
Isihlalo sakho asiyi kuwa!  
Ngaphezu kwezulu, ulawula,  
Uyasibona kwaye usigweba sonke.

Akaguquki, akaguquki,  
Isiphephelo sethu ebusuku.  
Xa zonke iziseko zomhlaba ziwohloka,  
Uhlala ekukhanyeni okungcwele.

Oh-oh-oh, ulawula ngonaphakade,  
Ngomlilo, ngemvula.  
Akaguquki, akaguquki,  
UThixo wethu uhlala efanayo!



[Verse 3 — The Holy Throne]

Kwindawo yakho engcwele,  
Ulawula ngobungangamsha nobabalo.  
Isihlalo sakho esikumazulu,  
Akukho nto ifihliweyo ebalekileyo emehlweni akho.

Uphanda ubunzulu bomphefumlo ngamnye,  
Yonke ingcinga efihliweyo, injongo nganye.  
Akukho nentliziyo yomntu evika emehlweni akho,  
Ulinganisa iindlela zethu ekukhanyeni okugqibeleleyo.



[Verse 4 — The Testing of Hearts]

Abo balungileyo nabangalunganga bajongwe nguwe,  
Iintliziyo zabo zivezwe phantsi kwemitha yakho.  
Uvavanya abathembekileyo, uvavanye iindlela zabo,  
Ngemilingo, ubuyisela iingoma zabo zendumiso.

Kodwa abo bathanda izenzo ezinobundlobongela,  
Iintliziyo zabo zivuya xa abanye beva ubuhlungu,  
Ubume bakho obungcwele buyajika,  
Kuba inkohlakalo ayikwazi ukwabelana ngeendlela zakho.



[Pre-Chorus — The Righteous Judge]

Uyazazi iintliziyo zomntu wonke,  
Intombi nganye, unyana ngamnye.  
Ubabalo luhamba, kodwa ubulungisa bumile,  
Indalo yonke iseZandleni zakho.



[Chorus — Unshaken]

Akaguquki, akaguquki,  
Isihlalo sakho asiyi kuwa!  
Ngaphezu kwezulu, ulawula,  
Uyasibona kwaye usigweba sonke.

Akaguquki, akaguquki,  
Isiphephelo sethu ebusuku.  
Xa zonke iziseko zomhlaba ziwohloka,  
Uhlala ekukhanyeni okungcwele.

Oh-oh-oh, ulawula ngonaphakade,  
Ngomlilo, ngemvula.  
Akaguquki, akaguquki,  
UThixo wethu uhlala efanayo!



[Verse 5 — The Judgment of Evil]

Phezu kwabakhohlakeleyo isigwebo siwela,  
Njengezikhuni ezitshisayo ezivela kwiindonga zakho.  
Umnqongo oshushu, umlilo ophuma phezulu,  
Impendulo kubundlobongela abathandayo.

Umoya oshushu uzalisa indebe yabo,  
Inxalenye ebabayo ilinganisiwe.  
Akukho bumnyama bufihlakeleyo obuya kumelana  
Phambi kwesigwebo sakho, esilungileyo nesicocekileyo.



[Verse 6 — The Promise of His Face]

Kuba ulungile, Nkosi yokukhanya,  
Onke amagwebo akho acocekile kwaye alungile.  
Uyathanda izenzo zenyaniso nobabalo,  
Uhlonipha abo bafuna iindlela zakho.

Abo balungileyo baya kubona ubuso bakho,  
Bame phambi kwesihlalo sakho sobabalo.  
Ngaphaya kwezithunzi, ukoyika, nobusuku,  
Baya kubona uzuko lwakho lukhanya ngokucacileyo.

[Bridge — Umthandazo Xa Iziseko Ziwela]

Thixo wezulu, phulaphula isikhalo sethu,  
Xa ithemba lomhlaba liphela.  
Xa iziseko ziyashukuma,  
Xa kungekho ndawo yokuzimela.

Hlola iintliziyo zethu, usihlambulule,  
Kodwa usikhusele ngamaxesha ovavanyo.  
Mabanganikoyisi uvavanyo lwethu,  
Yiba nguMhlanguli wethu noMhlobo wethu.

Jonga ngobubele kuMnyulwa Wakho,  
UYise kaYesu, uNyana oNgcwele.  
Ngaye, buyisela imiphefumlo ephukileyo,  
Siphilise, usenze sibe ngcono.

O, siphilise, Nkosi, siphilise kwakhona,  
Kuzo zonke iintlungu, zonke izithukuthuku.  
KuYesu Kristu, ithemba lethu liqinile,  
Uthando lwakho nenceba yakho ziya kuhlala zihlala.



[Final Chorus — Unoyolo, Ikwayara Egcwele]

Ayingcangcazeli, ayingcangcazeli,  
Itrone yakho ayisoze iwe!  
Ngaphezu kwezulu, ulawula,  
Uyabona kwaye usigweba sonke.

Ayingcangcazeli, ayingcangcazeli,  
Isiphephelo sethu ebusuku.  
Xa iziseko zomhlaba ziwela,  
Umi ekukhanyeni okungcwele.

Uyathanda okusesikweni, uyathanda inyaniso,  
Iintliziyo zethu ziguqukela kuwe ngokholo.  
Abalungileyo baya kubona ubuso bakho,  
Bahlale kumsa wakho ongcwele.

Ayingcangcazeli, ayingcangcazeli,  
Uhlala ngonaphakade!  
Kusuka kwisizukulwana ukuya kwisizukulwana,  
Ubulungisa bakho buza kulawula!



[Outro — Ethambileyo, Umthandazo]

Xa iziseko ziwela, uhlala.  
Xa izithunzi zivuka, usalawula.  
Xa iintli
