Tumaini's song 'NISIZAME' is a Swahili gospel plea for Jesus to rescue and save the singer from overwhelming hardships. The lyrics describe physical illness that doctors cannot cure, a heavy ministry burden, financial struggles including inability to pay rent, and abandonment by family and friends. The repeated cry 'Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe' (Save me Jesus, rescue me) expresses total dependence on God as the only source of help. The song reflects a raw, honest prayer for deliverance in the midst of suffering, echoing biblical themes of crying out to God in distress.

Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame uniokoe, Nisizame uniokoe.
Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame uniokoe,Nisizame uniokoe.
Magonjwa yananiandama, Hospitali zote nimemaliza
Kupona sijapona, Magonjwa yananiandama.
Madaktari wote nimemaliza,, Kupona sijapona
Njoo haraka unisaidie, nisizame, Uje hima unikoe, nisizame.
Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame uniokoe, Nisizame uniokoe.
Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame uniokoe,Nisizame uniokoe.
Naona huduma imekuwa nzito
Naona huduma hii Baba yangu kama ni mzigo
Naona huduma imekuwa nzito
Umekuwa kama mwiba
Lakini nakuita unisaidie, nisizame
Nisizame Baba, nisizame
Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame uniokoe, Nisizame uniokoe.
Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame uniokoe,Nisizame uniokoe.
Elimu nimemaliza, Kazi nimetafuta, nimekosa
Mwenye nymba naye amekukuja, Akidai kodi ya nyumba
Hata shilingi mimi sina, Nimejaribu kuomba kwa majirani
Ndugu zangu wote hakuna msaada
Marafiki zangu, hakuna msaada
Ni wewe tu msaada wangu, nisizame
Hili ni ombi langu, nisizame
Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame uniokoe, Nisizame uniokoe.
Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame Yesu, uniokoe
Nisizame uniokoe,Nisizame uniokoe.
