4 Thembani uThixo kokuphela,
5 Ubehlisela phansi abahlala engqongeni;
6 Inyawo zilinyathelela phansi,
7 Indlela yabalungileyo iqondile;
8 Yebo, Thixo, sihamba endleleni yemithetho yakho,
9 Umphefumulo wami uyakulangazelela ebusuku,
10 Lanxa ababi betshengiswa umusa,
11 Oh Thixo, isandla sakho siphakanyiselwe phezulu,
12 Thixo, usilethela ukuthula;
13 Oh Thixo, Nkulunkulu wethu, amanye amakhosi ngaphandle kwakho ake asibusa,
14 Khathesi asafa, kawasaphili;
15 Usandisile isizwe, Oh Thixo;
16 Thixo, beza kuwe ekuhluphekeni kwabo;
17 Njengowesifazane okhulelweyo lapho esezabeletha
18 Sasikhulelwe, sabhinqika ebuhlungwini,
19 Kodwa abafileyo bakho bazaphila Thixo,
20 Hambani bantu bami, ngenani ezindlini zenu,
21 Khangelani, uThixo uyaphuma lapho ahlala khona
