Adonai will hold me
🎵 “Adonai Will Hold Me”
A Country Waltz Inspired by Psalm 55:23 (CJB)
[Verse 1]
I wandered through sorrow, the night pressing in,
My soul felt the weight of regret and of sin.
But I heard a whisper, soft as a sigh,
“Cast it on Me—I'm Adonai.”
[Chorus]
Adonai will hold me, when the shadows fall,
He’ll carry my burden, He answers my call.
The righteous won’t stumble, won’t slip or decay,
He’s faithful forever, come what may.
[Verse 2]
The proud may be rising, their words full of lies,
But justice will come from the One who is wise.
I’ll sing through the silence, I’ll dance through the ache,
For Adonai’s promise will never break.
[Chorus]
Adonai will hold me, when the shadows fall,
He’ll carry my burden, He answers my call.
The righteous won’t stumble, won’t slip or decay,
He’s faithful forever, come what may.
[Bridge]
I stood by the stream where the laminar flows,
Held stones in my hand, each one full of woes.
I whispered to Adonai, soft and low,
Then watched as my burdens began to go.
Each skip on the water, a prayer set free,
A ripple of mercy washing over me.
The last stone sank with a shimmer of gold—
Hope in the hands of the One who holds.
[Final Chorus]
Adonai will hold me, when the shadows fall,
He’ll carry my burden, He answers my call.
The righteous won’t stumble, won’t slip or decay,
He’s faithful forever, come what may.
🎵 “Adonai Atanishika”
Wimbo wa Waltz ya Nchi kulingana na Zaburi 55:23 (CJB)
(Country Waltz Inspired by Psalm 55:23)
---
[Verse 1]
Nilitembea gizani, moyo mzito,
Mzigo wa dunia ulinilemea mno.
Lakini nikasikia sauti ya upole,
“Nitupie mzigo wako—Mimi ni Adonai.”
[Chorus]
Adonai atanishika, wakati wa giza,
Atabeba mzigo wangu, atasikia kilio changu.
Haki hawatateleza, hawataanguka,
Mwaminifu daima, hata siku ikibadilika.
[Verse 2]
Wenye kiburi wanainuka, maneno yao ni uongo,
Lakini haki ya Adonai itashinda kila kong’o.
Nitaimba katikati ya kimya, nitaimba hata nikiumia,
Kwa maana ahadi ya Adonai haivunjiki kamwe.
[Chorus]
Adonai atanishika, wakati wa giza,
Atabeba mzigo wangu, atasikia kilio changu.
Haki hawatateleza, hawataanguka,
Mwaminifu daima, hata siku ikibadilika.
[Bridge – “Kurusha Mawe Mtoni”]
Nilisimama kandoni mwa mto wa utulivu,
Mawe mikononi, kila moja na huzuni ya kweli.
Nikamnong’oneza Adonai kwa sauti ya upole,
Kisha nikarusha mzigo wangu polepole.
Kila kuruka kwa jiwe, ni sala iliyotolewa,
Miale ya rehema ikinifunika polepole.
Jiwe la mwisho likazama kwa mwanga wa dhahabu—
Tumaini mikononi mwa Yeye anayeshika.
[Final Chorus]
Adonai atanishika, wakati wa giza,
Atabeba mzigo wangu, atasikia kilio changu.
Haki hawatateleza, hawataanguka,
Mwaminifu daima, hata siku ikibadilika.
