Emma Omonge's song 'Nachotaka' is a Swahili worship song expressing a deep longing for God alone. The lyrics compare the soul's thirst for Jesus to a deer panting for water, emphasizing total dependence and desire for His presence. The singer asks to be immersed in God's love and to know Him beyond human understanding. The song conveys surrender, need for the Holy Spirit, and a plea for strength to serve God. It is a heartfelt prayer of devotion and intimacy with Christ.

Nachotaka niwe niwewe tu 
Nachotaka niwe niwewe tu 
Haja ya moyo wangu Yesu uu 
Haja ya moyo wangu Yesu uuh  .

Kama ayala atafutavyo maji 
Zaidi ya udongo mkavu 
Uonavyo kiu kwa tone la maji 
Ilivyo nafsi yangu isiposema nawe 
Ulivyo moyo wangu nisiposhiriki nawe 
Kama samaki nje ya bahari 
Sina uhai nje ya hema yako
Nataka nizame nizame 
Nizame kwa pendo lako 
Nataka nizame nizame 
Nizame kwa pendo lako 
Nakuhitaji Yesu eeh  .

Nachotaka niwe niwewe tu 
Nachotaka niwe niwewe tu 
Haja ya moyo wangu Yesu uu 
Haja ya moyo wangu Yesu uuh  .

Nataka nikujue zaidi ya fahamu zangu 
Bwana nikuinue zaidi ya hitaji langu 
Niloweshe kwa roho nikujue 
Sura ung'ae usoni mwangu 
Nataka nikutumikie kwa nguvu mpya aah 
Kisichowezekana niwezeshee eeh 
Ninapopungukiwa nineemeshe 
Nakuhitaji Yesu uoo-ooh  .

Nachotaka niwe niwewe tu 
Nachotaka niwe niwewe tu 
Haja ya moyo wangu Yesu uu 
Haja ya moyo wangu Yesu uuh
