lyrics
Chorus: Ubundumva mfite ubwoba,
umutima nturihamwe
hari inzira natangiye ariko nsinzi nibanzayirangiza
Imitego nimyinshi, inzira nayo irafunganye
umuyobozi ni wowe mana
fata ukuboko, uzampe ijuru
Ndakugarukiye mana yanjye, mbahafi umpe ubugingo yaganzi warayitsintze barangeregeje, uca inkonizamba uranyigarurira umbahafi sinifuza kuza kuvamo itekaryose ndibuka igihe naruwawe mana nkufitiye inyota, ariko igihe cyarageze nihindukukundi none ndagarutse ariko mfite ubwoba ko nazongera nkagwa.
Chorus I feel scared, my heart is palpitating, there is a journey I started but I am not sure I’ll succeed. So may pitfalls, the road looks narrow, Oh Lord take the lead, hold my hand, take me to heaven!
I am back to you my God, be closer, give me health, be nearby, I don’t want to leave you ever. I remember when I was yours, thirsty for your presence, but time came and I turned back, now I am back to you Lord, but I am scared to fall again.
Chorus
Now I feel safe in front of my savior, I am praising standing up as a soldier on a battle eager to triumph, that evil which ruined and took me off your way Lord. I can see, every single day because of your eternal life.
Chorus
I am coming back as Bosco J, back to tell you what I saw. I always suffered, I spend a long time unaware of your way Lord, but now I am back, lead me coz I am blind. You gave me eyes and I had illusions to see, but I am realizing that I am like the other blind, I thank you Lord for my change walking now into your eternity. But Lord, U did a lot for, none can blame you, every one praises you for your unlimited miracles, it’s like this earth is turning into paradise, I will not sin any more because I have decided to change.
