2. Baba, Mwana, Roho

1 Baba, Mwana, Roho, Mungu mwenye enzi,
Kila tukiamka tunakuabudu.
Baba, Mwana, Roho, Mungu wa mapenzi,
Ewe Utatu, tunakusifu.

2 Baba, Mwana, Roho, wakuaminio,
Wanakutolea shukurani zao.
Wakusujudia malaika nao:
Wewe U mwanzo, nawe U mwisho.

3 Baba, Mwana, Roho, sisi tu gizani,
Utukufu wako makosa hauna,
U Mtakatifu, nawe U mapenzi,
U peke yako, mwenzio huna.

4 Baba, Mwana, Roho, Mungu mwenye enzi,
Ulivyoviumba vyote vyakusifu:
Baba, Mwana, Roho, Mungu wa mapenzi,
Ewe Utatu, tunakusifu.
