The recurring line "fadhili zako zadumu milele na milele" ("Your lovingkindness endures forever and ever") is a Swahili rendering of the refrain repeated across Psalm 136 — "his steadfast love endures forever" — used there after every line describing what God has done, from creation to Israel's deliverance. The later verse listing specific benefits — "Umenilinda... Umeniponya... Umeni-inua... Umenibariki" ("You have protected me, healed me, lifted me, blessed me") — mirrors Psalm 103:2-4's list of what not to forget: God "who forgives... who heals... who redeems." The title itself, "Nasema Asante," simply means "I say thank you" — the song stays with that one sentence, layering reasons underneath it rather than moving on to a different idea.
