OSA THAYŨ WAKWA

(Take my life and let it be)

1.

Osa thayũ wakwa, wĩthĩwe

Mũio wa ũkwaĩla vyũ;

Osa moko makwa, Yesũ,

Tethya wĩa waku namo,

Tethya wĩa waku namo.

 

2.

Osa maũũ makwa, Mwĩaĩi,

Masembe wĩanĩ ũ waku,

Osa wasya wakwa, nine

Mbathi sya mũsumbĩ wakwa,

Mbathi sya mũsumbĩ wakwa.

 

3.

Osa mbesa syakwa, Mwĩaĩi,

Ndikwenda ũkũvata imwe;

Osa ilomo ii syakwa

Itavan’ye wendo waku,

Itavan’ye wendo waku.

 

4.

Osa wendo wakwa, Ngai mũtheu,

Ndikamwende ũngĩ mbee waku;

Mbosa nyie mwene, nĩthĩwe

Waku tene o na tene,

Waku tene o na tene.

(Amen)
