About “ Wamekosa nini” Album.

(Words by Judith Mbilinyi)

I was thinking about all who face poor conditions in Life. All who don’t have even the basic needs like clothes, food, etc, all with no peace in their nations, those who have lost their loved ones. Whether there is something they did wrong to God, for that reason they are suffering, but I found out that they did nothing wrong to God, and for those living a better life, whether  they did anything deserving to God.

 It’s just by his grace that we are where we are and how we are, my intention is to tell people that they have to know that we live by grace only. There is nothing deserving or worthy that we can do for God to keep us alive. If God counted all our mistakes, we would all perish but we live, and receive all we need not by power, not by might but by his grace.
