What would you do if you had an all-time reliable friend, perfect on all counts, yet one to lie down their life for a wretched person as yourself? Having tasted their benefit, you would pledge allegiance to them.
Nitakaa Kwako expresses the dependable nature of God, and affirms a devotion to Him. In no other could we find belonging than the heavenly Father. Out of Him, we are lifeless. But in Him we live, move and have our being.
Where would you rather dwell? The song says it better, let’s dive in.

Refuge and help from God
Isn’t it amazing that we have the privilege to attach our confidence in God? We can look up to him for security and help. And if this was not enough, He is always there for us.
Here are a few scripture references:
Psalms 32:7 NIV
[7] You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance.
Psalms 121:1-2 NIV
[1] I lift up my eyes to the mountains— where does my help come from?
[2] My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
Psalms 46:1 NIV
[1] God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.
Constant and watchful care
While our systems in security, health, and well-being may fail, God never loses sight of us. He is always watching over us. He created us, and cares for us.
Psalms 121:4 NIV
[4] indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
Matthew 10:29-30 NIV
[29] Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care.
[30] And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Communion with God
Having experienced the goodness of God, David desired to dwell forever in His house, in an unending communion with Him.
Psalms 27:4 NIV
[4] One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple.
2 Samuel 24:14 NIV
[14] David said to Gad, “I am in deep distress. Let us fall into the hands of the Lord, for his mercy is great; but do not let me fall into human hands.”
Psalms 73:28 NIV
[28] But as for me, it is good to be near God. I have made the Sovereign Lord my refuge; I will tell of all your deeds.

Nikitafuta pa kujificha sioni
Nikitazama milima msaada sioni
Nani nikimweleza shida zangu hata usiku wa manane
Aache usingizi anisikize
Nikitafuta pa kujificha sioni Bwana
Nikitazama milima msaada sioni
Nani nikimweleza shida zangu hata usiku wa manane
Aache usingizi anisikize
Aache usingizi anisikize
Lakini Wewe usiku mchana haulali
U tayari kuyajibu maswali yangu
Wewe ni rafiki mwema
Kila siku kwangu
Kwako nitakaa milele
Lakini Wewe usiku mchana haulali
U tayari kuyajibu maswali yangu
Wewe ni rafiki mwema
Kila siku kwangu
Kwako nitakaa milele
Kwako nitakaa milele
Hata iwe sitatoka
Nitoke Kwako niende wapi
Maana Kwako kuna usalama
Kwako nitakaa milele
Hata iwe sitatoka
Nitoke Kwako niende wapi
Maana Kwako kuna usalama
Kwako nitakaa milele
Hata iwe sitatoka
Nitoke Kwako niende wapi
Maana Kwako kuna usalama
Kwako nitakaa milele
Hata iwe sitatoka
Nitoke Kwako niende wapi
Maana Kwako kuna usalama
Maana Kwako kuna usalama
Maana Kwako kuna usalama
Mwingine wa kulinganishwa nawe hakuna
Hakuna msaada nitakaopata bila Wewe, eeh
Nategemea Kwako
Bila nguvu Zako sitaweza
Nategemea Kwako
Bila nguvu Zako sitaweza
Nategemea Kwako
Bila nguvu Zako sitaweza
Nategemea KwakoKwako nitakaa milele
Hata iwe sitatoka
Nitoke Kwako niende wapi
Maana Kwako kuna usalama

Hata iwe sitatoka
Nitoke Kwako niende wapi
Maana Kwako kuna usalama
Maana Kwako kuna usalama
Maana Kwako kuna usalama
