1.SIMUDZA kufunga kwedu
Mweya woutsvene;
Tifunge mabasa ako,
Tidzidzese nawo,
2. Iro zuva rokuuya,
Ngarisvike zvino;
Kuti iwo moto wako
Usvike kwatiri.
3. Tambanudza ndimi dzedu,
Dzidzidziswe newe;
Tizviteurire.
4. Kusangana kwamashoko,
Takakumirira;
Uya mweya woutsvene,
Ita basa pano.
5. Uya nesimba zvikuru,
Zadza iyi nzvimbo;
Tigonzwa masimba ako
Nokuita kwako.
6. Chikurumidza kuuya,
Mweya woutsvene;
Chinzwa miteuro yedu,
Utiburukire.

AFM adopted its hymns from the Presbyterian hymnal and not Methodist. I am a born methodist but go to AFM . We do not sing Methodist hymns. Mamwe akafanana mamwe haana but I enjoy ese
