1 Ee moyo wangu, hima,
enenda mbinguni!
Ulimwenguni humu
hapana pa raha.
Mchungaji wetu Yesu
achungapo kondoo
ni penye raha kuu.
Enenda mbinguni!

2 Yeye akupokee,
Mungu baba yako,
akuketishe pake
katika enzi kuu.
Atakuvika nguo
za wongofu wa Mungu,
akupa raha kuu.
Enenda mbinguni!

3 Nakutuamani sana.
Mwana kondoo Mungu!
Ningepata mabawa
ningeruka pale,
wanaposhangilia
malaika wake Mungu
katika raha kuu.
Enenda mbinguni!

4 Mapenzi yako, Bwana
ndizo haja zangu
Utakalo lolote
nami nitatenda.
Naingojea siku
utakayoniita,
nipate raha kuu!
Enenda mbinguni!
