Muti-ini by Beatrice Muniu

Lyrics: Muti-Ini (At the Cross)

(Chorus)
Muti-ini, muti-ini, ndure ngocaga Ngai,
nginya ngoro ikahuruka, Murimo uria wa rui (x4)

(At the cross, At the cross, I will be praising God, till my soul shall find rest beyond the river)

(Verse 1)
Jesu Njikaria muti-ini, githima-ini kia utugi,
He rui rwa kuhonania, rumaga gorogotha (x2)

(Jesus keep me near the cross there a precious
fountain, Free to all a healing stream, flows from
Calv'ry's mountain)

(Chorus)
Muti-ini, muti-ini, ndure ngocaga Ngai,
nginya ngoro ikahuruka, Murimo uria wa rui (x4)

(At the cross, At the cross, I will be praising God, till my soul shall find rest beyond the river)

(Verse 2)
Ndiebebekaga muti-ini wendo na tha ikanjoya,
naguo utheri waguo muingi, ukajangararira (x2)

(Chorus)
Muti-ini, muti-ini, ndure ngocaga Ngai,
nginya ngoro ikahuruka, Murimo uria wa rui (x4)

(At the cross, At the cross, I will be praising God, till my soul shall find rest beyond the river)

(Near the cross a trembling soul, love and mercy
found me. There the bright and morning star sheds
its beams around me)

(Chorus)
Muti-ini, muti-ini, ndure ngocaga Ngai,
nginya ngoro ikahuruka, Murimo uria wa rui (x4)

(At the cross, At the cross, I will be praising God, till my soul shall find rest beyond the river)

(Verse 3)
Hau Muti-ini nyonaga, gaturume ka ngai,
Ndeithia guthii hingo ciothe, ndi kiruru-ini kiaguo (x2)

At the cross I see the Lamb of God,
Help me to always walk, under the shadow of the cross)

(Chorus)
Muti-ini, muti-ini, ndure ngocaga Ngai,
nginya ngoro ikahuruka, Murimo uria wa rui (x4)

(At the cross, At the cross, I will be praising God, till my soul shall find rest beyond the river)

Excellent video -- Wonderful to see you using Kenyan cultural context rather than being a poor imitation of another cultural group. Njeri

[stormspinner1]

One day, hope to visit Kenya and Tanzania. Until then, can enjoy the people and music through your videos. God bless you!
