about

This song is about Jesus being the Rock for those who journey with Him through life. They must cling to the Cross and ask the Lord to keep them until they see Him at the end of the Journey.

lyrics

Lyrics:

Thanthwe langa ndi Yesu. (My rock is Jesus.)
M’bale wanga, thanthwe ilo, (My brother, that rock,)
Thanthwe langa ndi Yesu. (My rock is Jesus.)

Timanyamuka maulendo athu, (We start off our journeys,)
Opita uko kutali. (Of going far away.)
Posakhalitsa ife timabwerera. (Soon we return.)
Kubwerera komwe tachoka. (Returning where we left.)
Koma ulendo ulendo wapafupi, (But the journey, the short journey,)
Wopita uko kumanda. (of going to the grave.)
Wopita kumeneko bwanji samabwerera? (Those going there, why don’t they return?)
M’bale wanga uzifunse. (My brother, ask yourself.)

Eee Konzeka! (Be prepared!)
Konzeka ndi ulendowu. (Be prepared for this journey.)
Lapa tchimo ulindi moyo. (Repent while you are alive.)

M’manja mopanda kanthu ine. (Nothing in my hands.)
Mtanda ndingogwiradi. (The Cross I cling.)
Maliseke mbuye mundimveke. (Nakedness, Lord, clothe me.)
Ndili ndekha sungeni. (I’m all alone, keep me.)
Moyo wanga uvutika. (My life is troubled.)
Nkaganiza zatsikulo, (If I think of that Day,)
Mmene ndizaona mbuye Yesu. (When I will see my Lord Jesus.)
Ali kuweluza dziko. (Judging the World.)
