LYRICS

Verse 1

(God)

I died for you, gave up my life for you cos I love you

I would still do it again oh just for you,

But I don’t have to prove my love cos I had already done that

When I came for you and stayed though you think I had left well I’m ready to come back but

¹Nalishibe ati ukankana

Nalishibe ati ukankana

When I sent my only Son to come and die for your sins ² nga ³ Water Sewerage ku Kitwe Nalishibe ati ukankana.

But I did it anyway; Love’s a decision I decided

The only way I can give your life is when I’m knocked dead well I’m not dead I still live

I’m still the same me, the same King who would still give all that you ask of him.

Bridge.

I’m here with arms wide open waiting for you,

To open your eyes wide open and see that you,

Can live the life I’ve given if only you,

Believe the words I’ve spoken to you.

 

Chorus.

Who does that?!!!!

Heals the sick, Raise’ the dead,

Cause’ the blind to see and make the lame walk again

Who does that?!!!

Feeds the hungry and clothes the poor,

Loves the downcast with a love so pure.

Who does that?!!!

Fathers the fatherless, Mothers the motherless

In him the weary find their rest, their strength and their confidence.

Who Does That?!!!

Full of grace, the hope to the hopeless, remains faithful even when we faithless.

 

2nd Verse

I’m ready to listen, but ⁴tamulanda

I’m ready to respond but nobody asking, ⁵ala chabulanda

I’m ready to be found but nobody’s seeking, they continue living foolishly crucifying the Christ that is risen

Ala Chabulanda

⁶Ndafwaya ukwisa

Ndafwaya ukwisa

But my Son wouldn’t let me,

He continually intercedes for all of you and it really hurts me,

The fact that you know that he died for all of you yet you don’t wanna let him in.

You’ve taken advantage of my mercy,

You’ve taken for granted, taken for granted my grace see,

You living in bondage when I’ve already set you all free,

And because of my love whenever you feel the need to face me you will find me here,

 

Bridge

With arms wide open waiting for you,

To open your eyes wide open and see that you,

Can live the life I’ve given if only you,

Believe the words I’ve spoken to you.

 

Back To Chorus….
