The blood of Jesus: A gospel song of hope and redemption. (Translated Lyrics from Hon. Judith Babirye)

By -

 In honor of Hon. Judith Babirye, Uganda's renowned Queen of Gospel Music.

The freedom I've received was bought with blood,

The hospitality I've received was made possible by blood,

The price of life was paid in blood,

The blood of Jesus, sufficient for me.

When He died in shame, I saw mercy,

The Son of God showed me love.

The blood He poured out was precious,

Washing and cleansing away every scar.


The blood of Jesus is all I need,

It washes away every scar.

I'll dip my clothes in His blood,

I will not fear when He calls my name.


When He said, 'It is finished,' I survived the grave.

When He said, 'Forgive them,' I received mercy.

In His pain, He spoke for me because He loved me.

He called out His Father to strengthen Him, so that I might live.

The blood of Jesus is all I need,

It washes away every scar.

I'll dip my clothes in His blood,

I will not fear when He calls my name.


It’s enough when the grave is open,

It’s enough when hope seems lost.

Call out the blood of Jesus,

It's power for our salvation.


The blood of Jesus is all I need,

It washes away every scar.

I'll dip my clothes in His blood,

I will not fear when He calls my name.

I know we've been through our fair share of struggles and disagreements. We've argued and quarreled time and time again, but despite all of that, my love for you remains unwavering. I don't care about the past or the mistakes I've made; all that matters is the love I have for you, and the fact that you were the first person I ever loved. I know I've hurt you, and for that, I am truly sorry. My actions were thoughtless, and I broke your heart. But please know that my love for you is genuine, and it can't be changed by my mistakes or the challenges we've faced. I may not be perfect; I may be a little or more rough around the edges, but my heart belongs to you. My mind may wander, my eyes may stray, and my feet may take me on a different path, but my heart will always find its way back to you. The world may try to tear us apart, but our love is stronger than that. They may try to silence our laughter and our smiles, but we won't let them. If I were God, I w

In 1 Samuel 8:5, the people asked Samuel to appoint a king to lead them, but Samuel was displeased with their request. God said, "Listen to all that the people are saying to you; it is not you they have rejected, but they have rejected me as their king" (1 Samuel 8:7). Imagine having God as your king - what could He fail to do? What nation could He fail to conquer? How great His kingdom would become! Beautiful streets, abundant food, and remarkable development. But the people requested a change in leadership, demonstrating that even the best arrangements can become stale. A Ugandan wise man once said, "Even the best dancer eventually gets off the stage." Everything in this mortal world has a beginning and an end. Beauty is like a flower that soon withers; it's foolish for a mortal to boast about their beauty, for who will marry them when it fades? When people rejected God as their king, He could have waged war on them, but He chose not to. As the creator, He cou

I'M HERE...

I'M HERE Bad luck comes running, opportunities crawl, And just as they near, a gust blows them away. I'm lost in the desert, parched and forlorn, Only to find the oases of love and peace have dried up, gone. It's a marathon, but I've barely begun, My hand outstretched, yet no one has stopped to see. Darkness shrouds me, passersby can't see, My heart's door wide open, pleading to be free. Oh, to fly and chase opportunities afar! To dig deep and find the waters, to quench this burning scar! To see with eagle eyes and find the shortcut home! To sing a song that shines a light, to make my voice known! But alas, I'm here, my hand still outstretched, My heart still open, still yearning to be reached. I'm here, beside you, can't you see? I'M HERE...
