Vice Versa Lyrics by Size 8 Reborn and Rose Muhando

(Sung in Swahili)

Nakushukuru Mungu we, ewe Mungu we
(I thank you God, You God)
Nakushukuru Mungu we, nimeona mkono wako
(I thank you God, for I have seen Your Hand)
Kama si wewe Mungu we, ewe Mungu we
(If it wasn’t for You, God)
Kama si wewe Mungu we, singefika hapa nilipo
(If it wasn’t for You, I would not have been where I am)

(Repeat)

Nilipopita kati ya uvuli wa bonde la mauti na kuzimu
(When I pass through the valley of the shadow of death)
Uliniona Yesu (Jesus You watch over me)
Nilipopigwa na maadui, wakanishambulia
(When my enemies target me and attack me)
Uliniona Yesu (Jesus You watch over me)
Shetani aliposimama, ili anifanye mawindo
(When Satan stands so that he hunts me)
Ulinificha Yesu (Jesus You hide me)
Marafiki wangu walitabiri maanguko yangu
(When my friends prophesy my failures)
Umeniinua Yesu (You have lifted me, Jesus)

Wewe Mwamba wangu, wewe nguvu yangu
(You are my rock, You are my strength)
We amani yangu, kimbilio langu
(You are my peace, my Refuge)
Msaada wangu, watosha!
(My Helper, You are enough!)

(Refrain)

Mbwa mwitu walipiga kelele, nikaziba masikio
(When wild dogs howl, and I close my ears)
Nilikuona Yesu (I saw You Jesus)
Walipanga mipango ya uovu, ili niangamie
(They plotted evil plans, that I may perish)
Ukapangua Yesu (You confused the plans, Jesus)

Mipango, mawazo, walionikusudia
(The plans and the thoughts You intend for me)
Wamepanga, umepanguwa, imekwenda vice versa
(They planned, you unplanned them, it has gone vice versa)
(Refrain)

Kama vice versa (Like vice versa)
Uongo vice versa (Falsehoods, vice versa)
Uchawi vice versa (Witchcraft, vice versa)
Fitina vice versa (Intrigues, vice versa)
Masengenyo vice versa (Gossip, vice versa)
Nimeshinda! (I have overcome!)

(Refrain)
