1.
Jezi se ou menm ki sovè a,
San ou menm mwen pa genyen lavi (2 fwa)

Refren
Yo panse fè mwen mal,
Mal change an byen
Se pou glwa Bondye manifeste (2 fwa)

2.
Yo pran m, yo lage m nan sitèn nan,
Pou m pèdi lavi materyèl mwen;
Jezi ki konnen sa li pra l fè,
Mwen kouri lage mwen nan bra li.

3.
Malgre mwen nan bouch delivrans mwen;
Satan vin pou l lage m nan lemonn
Jezi ki ranpli ak tout fòs li
Mwen kouri lage mwen nan bra li.

4.
Jezi, menm nan mitan brigan yo
Tou sa mwen fè yo leve kont mwen,
Si ou pa vire je gade mwen,
Brigan yo va lage m nan lemonn.

5.
Malgre mwen nan bouch delivrans mwen
Madanm Potifa vin po jete m;
Madanm Potifa kenbe rad mwen,
Mwen kouri lag vès mwen ba li.

1.
Jesus, You are the Savior,
Without You, I have no life (2 times)

Chorus:
They thought they could harm me,
But evil turned to good,
So that God’s glory could be revealed (2 times)

2.
They threw me into the cistern,
Hoping I’d lose my earthly life;
But Jesus knows what He will do,
I run and take refuge in His arms.

3.
Though I’m near my deliverance,
Satan came to pull me back into the world,
But Jesus, with all His strength,
I run and take refuge in His arms.

4.
Jesus, even among robbers,
Everything I do, they rise against me;
If You don’t turn Your eyes toward me,
The robbers will drag me back into the world.

5.
Though I’m near my deliverance,
Potiphar’s wife came to tear me down;
She grabbed hold of my clothes,
But I ran and left my garment behind.
