(A song for worship.)
Trusting the Lord in Times of Trouble
1 From a sea of troubles
I cry out to you, Lord.
2 Won't you please listen
as I beg for mercy?
3 If you kept record of our sins,
no one could last long.
4 But you forgive us,
and so we will worship you.
5 With all my heart,
I am waiting, Lord, for you!
I trust your promises.
6 I wait for you more eagerly
than a soldier on guard duty
waits for the dawn.
Yes, I wait more eagerly
than a soldier on guard duty
waits for the dawn.
7 Israel, trust the Lord!
God is always merciful
and has the power to save you.
8 Israel, the Lord will save you
from all your sins.
Mätu ta Ŋgaopa rota
1 Ni 'buociekye rriti ro yasi ma driayo miri Äye OPI;
2 Nyeri läzi maro, Äye OPI;
nyeri rulo'ba maro ta ŋgaopa rota.
3 Ondro aba nyegyi takozii amaro gwo egyi,
a'di unina ni ŋgaopane ni vure risi ya?
4 Oko nya ama e'be e'be takozi ta,
tana màro aro mi robe.
5 Ma OPI kwote ya cini si ŋgaopa ta,
ago ma taoyi ata ndaro ya.
6 Ma OPI kwote
ya cini si ndrani vookwa'bai kabe 'buzevoosi kwote drisi.
7 Ami Yisaraele'bai mìyi ta OPI ya,
tana ŋgalu ndaro orivoya 'duro
ago nda orivoya ole be 'diopane.
8 Nda opana lidri Yisaraele ro 'da ni
takozii cini ànyaro risi.
