Скачать или смотреть Rukundo ya Yesu (RR 242) - (My song is love unknown)

“The love of Jesus is my song…”
This worship song reflects on the greatest love ever known — the love of Jesus Christ who endured rejection, suffering, and the cross so that we might receive salvation and healing.
The same crowds that welcomed Him with Hosannas later cried “Crucify Him!” Yet His love never wavered. He bore the shame, the pain, and the cross — so that we might be restored.
Let this song draw your heart into gratitude and worship as we remember the sacrifice of Christ and celebrate the love that never fails.
May we never stop asking in awe:
“Who am I, Lord, that You died for me?”

--- || Here below are the lyrics in Runyankore Rukiga with English translation

Rukundo ya Yesu
(My song is love unknown)

Rukundo ya Yesu nikyo kyeshongoro
(The love of Jesus is my song)
Kyangy’ ou yaakunzire Haza ntashemeire.
(Love to the loveless that I may lovely be)
Nyowe niiny’ oha, Mukama
(O who am I, Lord)
Kunkunda, kand’ akanfeera?
(That you loved and died for me?)

1. Tweshongore Rukundo ya Yesu Mukama
(Let us sing the love of the Lord Jesus)
Haza nyowe ntashemeire
(Yet I am unworthy)
Niny’oha kumureeta akanfeera
(O who am I, that he died for me)
Ndyaguma musiime
(I will ever be grateful to Him)

Bamwe baamwarira ebijwaro byabo,
(Many spread their cloaks on the road for him)
Baamuhimbisa ngu, Hosan’ Iwe Kristo!
(Resounding all day Hosannas to Christ)
Hakye boona baahinduka,
(Then quickly they turned)
Bati, Mumwiheho abambwe!
(And cried out, ‘Crucify him!’)

Rukundo ya Yesu…

2. Akaija munsi yaitu habw’okutujuna
(He came to us salvation to bestow)
Titwamanya ngu ni Kristo
(But men did not recognize the Christ)
Munywani wangye reeba mubusaasi
(But oh, my Friend - in pain)
Yaafa ngu nshemere
(He died that I may be whole)

Bakeshengereza ngy babambe Yesu
(They rise and plead to crucify Jesus)
Bashaba kuheebwa baraba omunyagi
(The murderer they plead to save)
Kwonka Yesu yayemera
(But Jesus endured it all)
Kufa ngu bo bakakira
(To die that they may be healed)

Rukundo ya Yesu…

3. Taratungire bingi omu magara ge
(In life, no house, no home, not much)
N’omukufakwe yashwaara
(Even in death, a shameful sight)
Ekituuro kye kyab’ eky’entiizano
(His tomb was a borrowed one)
Yacena ngu ntungye
(He was poor that I may be rich)

Ka mbeeshongorere eby’orwo rukundo;
(Le me sing for you of that great love)
Kandi nintangaar’ ahabw’okunkund’ atyo!
(Even as I marvel at how he loved me so)
Yes’ ogwo ni Nkunzi yangye!
(That is my Friend Jesus!)
Ndyaguma nimmuhimbisa.
(I’ll praise Him all my days)

Ka mbeeshongorere…

Rukundo ya Yesu…
