JIGIDEM means see me through Lord. The song is a prayer that God should hold and sustain us as believers in this world till we fulfill our life’s purpose.
Jigide’m, Onye nwe’m Jesus Jigide’m
(Lord Jesus, uphold me)
Oso gi ka’m ga-gba (I will run your race)
Nmeri gi ka’m ge meri uwa
(With your victory, I will overcome the world)
or By your your victory…
Nye’m ike oge nile (Give me strength always)
Ka’m ghari da (so I shall not fail)
I have come this far
not by my own power
and I have no fear
your love will take me there
I’ve been too long in this song
I need your strength to go on
the race is not to the swift and the battle not to strong
and I know you will see me through
It doesn’t matter
what comes my way
anytime of the day
I will call on you
You will answer me
I’ve been too long in this song
I need your strength to go on
the race is not to the swift and the battle not to strong
