Joyous Celebration – Igama Lakho Lihle

Lyrics: Igama Lakho Lihle by Joyous Celebration

Jesu, igama lakho lihle
(Jesus, Your name is beautiful)
Liyaphila Jesu, alikh’ elinye
(It is alive Jesus, and there’s none like it)
Linamandla Jesu, igama lakho lihle
(It is powerful Jesus, Your name is beautiful)
Malibongwe ezweni lonke
(Let it be praised in all the Earth)

Kwizilingo zalomhlaba, sibiz’ uJesu, igam’ elihle
(Throughout all temptations of this world, we call upon Jesus’ beautiful name)
Iizintlipho neenkathazo zingelinganiswe nobuhle balo
(All worry and grief are nothing compared to it’s beauty)
Izulu lonke libuka lona, izizwe zonke zikothama kulo
(The heavens marvel at it, all nations bow to it)
Zithi Jesu wen’ unegam’ elihle
(Proclaiming that Jesus’ name is beautiful)

Jesu, igama lakho lihle
(Jesus, Your name is beautiful)
Liyaphila Jesu, alikh’ elinye
(It is alive Jesus, and there’s none like it)
Linamandla Jesu, igama lakho lihle
(It is powerful Jesus, Your name is beautiful)
Malibongwe ezweni lonke
(Let it be praised in all the Earth)

Jesu, wen’ unegam’ elihle
(Jesus, Your name is beautiful)
Siphila ngalo, sisinda ngalo, soyisa ngalo, namhla simile ngalo
(We live because of it, we are saved because of it, we conquer because of it, and today we stand by it)
Jesu, wen’ unegam’ elinamandla okuphila
(Jesus, Your name has power of life)
Jesu, wen’ unegam’ elihle
(Jesus, Your name is beautiful)

Oh Jesus, wen’ unegam’ elihle
(Jesus, Your name is beautiful)
Ingom’ emnand’ entlizweni, ndizolihuba njalo nje
(It is a heartfelt song, i will always sing it)
Ndizolicula, lize lidume kwizizwe zonke
(I will sing it till it is known in all nations) x4

Ndizolicula, lize lidume kwizizwe zonke
(I will sing it till it is known in all nations) x4
