Yabo (Praise) Lyrics by Solomon Lange

Verse 1
Some trust in chariots
Some trust in horses
But we trust in the name of the Lord
Some trust in their skills
Others trust in their kings
But we trust in the name of the Lord
When the arm of flesh will fail them
We’ll still be standing tall
’Cause we trust in the name of the Lord
When they say “there’s a casting down”
We will say “there’s a lifting up”
’Cause we trust in the name of the Lord

Menene zan baka ’soyi na
(What shall I offer you, my Love?)
Domin kaunar ka zuwa gareni
(To appreciate the love You’ve shown me)
Menene zan baka mai kieto na
(What shall I offer you, my benefactor)
Domin alherin ka zuwa gareni
(To appreciate the love You’ve shown me)

Chorus
Yabo daga zuchiya
(Praise from my heart)
Yabo daga zuchiya
(Praise from my heart)
Yabo daga zuchiya
(Praise from my heart)
Na baka (na baka)
(I give to you)
Na baka (na baka)
(I give to you)

Verse 2
If the Lord doesn’t build the house
Then we labor in vain
But we trust in the name of the Lord
If the Lord doesn’t watch the city
Then we stay awake in vain
But we trust in the name of the Lord
Greater is he who is in me
Than he who is in the world
I triumph in the name of the Lord

Menene zan baka ’soyi na
(What shall I offer you, my Love?)
Domin kaunar ka zuwa gareni
(To appreciate the love You’ve shown me)
Menene zan baka mai kieto na
(What shall I offer you, my benefactor)
Domin alherin ka zuwa gareni
(To appreciate the love You’ve shown me)

Chorus
Yabo daga zuchiya
(Praise from my heart)
Yabo daga zuchiya
(Praise from my heart)
Yabo daga zuchiya
(Praise from my heart)
Na baka (na baka)
(I give to you)
Na baka (na baka)
(I give to you)

Verse 3
Blow the trumpet in Zion
Sound the alarm on the holy mountain
We will never be afraid
We’ve got the victory
We’ve got the victory forever

Bridge
Yabo daga zuchiya
(Praise from my heart)
Sujada daga zuchiya
(Worship from my heart)
Yabo daga zuchiya
(Praise from my heart)
Godiya daga zuchiya
(Thanksgiving from my heart)
