Mape mache sèl ak Jesu
Nan yon kominyon divin
Lemonn pa kapab fè m plezi
Mwen pou Kris, e Kris pou mwen.
Kè:
Mwen te wè Li, mwen konnen Li!
Li fè mwen mache avè L;
E Li fè m kado prezans Li,
Se yon kado etènèl.
Ki gran glwa, divin prezans Li,
Ki gran jwa, wè L fasafas!
Mwen ba Li lavi m pou toutan,
Li te genyen-l pa lagras.
Sou montay la mwen te wè Li;
Kris, Konsolatè, Zanmi;
Laglwa vizyon sa a va rete
Jouktan lavi mwen fini.
English words that can be sung to the same tune:
I am walking with Jesus Christ
In a perfect communion
I do not want to please the world
Only pleasing Jesus Christ
Chorus:
Yes, I saw Him! Yes, I know Him!
He allows me to walk with Him,
He gives us the gift of His presence,
As He’ll always be with us.
What a glory to be with Him,
What a joy seeing Him face to face!
I give Him my life forever,
By His grace I am saved.
On the mountain top, I saw Him;
Christ, my Comforter and my Friend;
The glory of that vision will remain
Till the rest of my life.
Literal word for word translation:
I will walk only with Jesus
In a divine communion
The world cannot please me
I am for Christ, and Christ is for me.
Chorus:
I saw Him, I know Him!
He made me walk with Him;
And He gives me the gift of His presence,
It is an eternal gift.
What grand glory, divine presence,
What grand joy, see Him face to face!
I give Him my life forever,
He saved it by grace.
On the mountain I saw Him;
Christ, Comforter, Friend;
The glory of this vision will stay
Until my life ends.
