So Will I (100 Billion X) - Africa with tags praise, worship, south africa

“THEN ALL THE NATIONS WILL CALL YOU BLESSED, FOR SOUTH AFRICA WILL BE A DELIGHTFUL LAND,” SAYS THE LORD ALMIGHTY.

MALACHI 3:12 (PARAPHRASED)

Worship overflows from a heart surrendered in thankfulness to our personal Saviour, Jesus. The power of a single moment in His presence can bring healing, hope and restoration. Our desire is that, through these songs, those who have felt lost, broken, hurt, confused or alone can find freedom and new life.

Worshipping in African languages for the first time, we pray that these songs will bring deeper understanding to our personal faith and connect us more intimately with the God of heaven and earth. The heart of this album is to connect people to Jesus, the Name that stands above all names.

Jesus is for everyone. Enabling people to worship God in their own language brings dignity and greater intimacy. We pray this album will also promote unity and a greater level of love and understanding amongst our brothers and sisters across South Africa.

May this album bring men and women, young and old together as we worship Jesus. May our hearts unite and be inspired to build a brighter future. And may we truly see God’s glory displayed across this beautiful rainbow nation.

VERSE 1: (English)

God of creation

There at the start

Before the beginning of time

With no point of reference

You spoke to the dark

And fleshed out the wonder of light

CHORUS 1: (Zulu)

Ngephimbo lakho

Izigidigidi zenkanyezi ziyazalwa

Ngophefumulo wakho imihlaba iyabumbeka

Um' ikanyezi zikudumisa nami ngok'njalo

Uveza uthando lakho kukho okwenzile

Zinkanyezi ezivuthayo

Luphawo lomusa

Um' indalo ik’dumisa nami ngok'njalo

VERSE 2: (Xhosa)

Thixo wes’thembiso

Uthetha ngenjongo

Akawi phants’ amazwi akho

Uthetha nje kwakho

Imvelo nolwazi zilandela isandi sakho

CHORUS 2: (Afrikaans)

En soos U praat

Skep ’n honderd biljoen skepsels U asem

Verander in navolging van U Woord

As dit U aard so openbaar dan sal ek ook

Ek sien U hart in alles wat U sê

Elke geverfde hemel

'n Genadeskilderdoek

As die skepping U gehoorsaam sal ek ook

BRIDGE: (Zulu)

Um'inkanyezi zik'dumisa nami ngok'njalo

Um'iintaba zik'khothamela nami ngok'njalo

Um'iilwandle zik'gubhela nami ngok'njalo

Um'umhlaba uk'phakamisa nami ngok'njalo

Um'imoya ibhembhuka nami ngok'njalo

Ek'thuleni amadwala ayakhalela nami ngok'njalo

Um'imizamo yonke yethu ingafinyeleli

Sohuba njalo nguna phakade

VERSE 3: (Afrikaans)

God van verlossing

U't my hart nagejaag

Deur al my mislukking en trots

U't die lig van die wereld

Op 'n heuwel geskep

Om alleen in die donker te sterf

CHORUS 3: (Xhosa)

Ngezwi Lakho

Iziphoso ngeziphoso ziyanyamalala

Uncame obakho ubom’ uze ndiphile kuwe

Walishiy’ ithuna uze nam ndenze njalo

Ndibon’ intliziyo yakho kuko konke

Kucikiziwe konke ngothando Lwakho

Xa uzinikezela nam ndonjenjalo

Ndibon’intliziyo yakho ngendlela zonke

Ngamnye onexabiso wamsindisa

Ubunikel’ ubomi bakho ngobathanda

Nam ndonjenjalo

TAG: (English)

Like You would again a hundred billion times

But what measure could amount to Your desire

You're the One who never leaves the one behind
