[Intro]
In the hush of prayer, we lift our hearts to You
Igbo echoes blend with English truth, holy and true
[Verse 1]
O God, You are holy, perfect, and near
I depend on Your grace, Your voice I hear
You are my refuge, my shield, my guide
In Your presence I stand, with You I reside
[Chorus 1]
Hallowed be Your name, I worship You here
Spirit of grace, Your mercy draws near
I lean on You, my strength and my song
In Your protection, I know I belong
[Igbo Verse 2]
Chukwu-nwamba, ihu-oma di n’iru m
Mere ka m kwuo: I nwere m gburu ọnụ
N’ime mgbagha, i kwuru na m chere onwe m
N’ihu gị, daalụ, afọ m nwere nduzi
[Chorus 2]
Onye-n’eluigwe, imply Your presence near
Ijeghari n’ihu gị, I hang on to You dear
Blessed be Your name, my refuge and shield
In Your holy light, all fears must yield
[Verse 3]
I kneel in confession, I depend on Your grace
Your blood has sealed me, Your love fills my place
You are my Shepherd, Your voice guides my days
I declare Your glory in perpetual praise
[Tongues/Verse 4]
Hmmm... (tongues) Your Spirit intercedes with holy fire
Filling this heart with faith, lifting me higher
Hmmm... (tongues) near as a mother’s embrace
Your presence surrounds me, I worship Your face
[Chorus 3]
Great is Your faithfulness, mighty to save
I am Your child, my steps You will pave
Your protection around me, Your mercy before me
In every breath I bless Your holy name, I’m eternally free
[Bridge]
Glory to the Lamb who was slain for me
Grace poured out, I bow to decree
That You are near, your promises true
I cling to Your word, and Your truth holds me through
[Verse 5]
Ndụ m dị n’ime gị, na ike gị
Ihu-ụwa gị na-enye m ume ọhụrụ
You are my fortress, my eternal dawn
Where I end, Your mercy goes on
[Chorus 4]
Worthy are You, holiness is Your throne
I am held secure by Your strong, loving own
Protector, guide, in You I will stay
Shalom over me, as I worship and say
[Outro]
Holy, holy, I bow in humble rise
Dependence on You, the only wise
Grace that covers, blessings that flow
In Your nearness, I steadfastly grow
