OSKA NTSHEBA WA NnYATSA (Don’t Look Down on Me) Lyrics by Psalmist Sefako (Joyous Celebration 23)

Ha dintho tsaka lehono disa kopane (When things in life are not going well)
E sale boshego (It’s still early/ It’s not over)
Modimo osa kopantsha (The Lord is preparing a table)
Oska nsheba wa nnyatsa (Don’t look at me with contempt)
Nako yaka e yetla (My morning is coming)
So please man!
Oska nsheba wa nnyatsa (Don’t look at me with contempt)
(Repeat)

Refrain:
Jehova le lenyatso ga ba kopane
(The Lord and contempt do not mix)
Jehova ga kwane le lenyatso
(The Lord is not mocked/disrespected)
(Repeat)

(From the top)

Ke shegofetse (I am blessed)
Ka Jeso Kriste ya mphang matla (Through Jesus Christ who strengthens me)
Ai man, ke kgona tsohle (Ah, I can do all things)
Ka Kriste ya mphang matla (Through Christ who strengthens me)
(Repeat)

(Refrain)
