The lyrics below sum up our excitement for this beautiful slum of Soweto. We Are Kenya is a ministry given to God’s people, for God’s glory, to embolden the passion of the children and leaders of Soweto to become unashamed followers of Christ, and to carry, with dignity, the future of their great community, their city, their country. That is, Kenya. They Are Kenya.
You’re the God of this City
You’re the King of these people
You’re the Lord of this nation
You are
You’re the Light in this darkness
You’re the Hope to the hopeless
You’re the Peace to the restless
You are
There is no one like our God
There is no one like our God
For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
Greater thing have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
There is no one like our God
There is no one like our God
For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done here
There is no one like our god
There is no one like our God
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done here
