# POEM BY ROY JOHANNES GAMA

My church is Bethesda Apostolic Church
Established by Archbishop LM Manhango in 1952 PACHIWIRIRI
Patsime reruponeso rwemweya

BMCU, Ruwadzano, BCU, and GCU
My church is Bethesda Apostolic Church
A church filled with knowledge and wisdom
Oh ! Boys and girls !
My church is Bethesda Apostolic Church

A church that found a place deep inside my heart
Donhodzo remoyo nemweya wangu
A church full of joy, peace, love and prosperity


Oh! Friends and family
My church is Bethesda Apostolic Church
A church that comforts the sick, the weak and the dying
Zororo revakaneta nevakaremerwa
A church full of the Holy Spirit
A church that prophesies
A church that feeds the poor
A church where all are welcome
Chechi iyi yaVaManhango ndichengaose manhanga
Hapana risina mhodzi

PACHIWIRIRI
Patinowirirana mumweya nemuzvokwadi
Where we praise and sing for the Most High
Who commands all hosts of heaven
Who rules with peace and justice
My church is Bethesda Apostolic Church
Where we see signs and wonders
From the awesome God
Whose powers raise the dead
Oh! Bethesda sad shall I never be
Bethesda ndiro utiziro hwangu
Ndiro bako rangu rekuhwanda
In it we all find refuge
Bethesda the citadel of joy

My church is Bethesda Apostolic Church
Ndinotambarara nekutandara ndirimo
Victory is certain to us all
Who trust in the mightiness of the Almighty
Bethesda Apostolic Church
Tiri vakundi nekupfurikidza !
