Lyrics
Jipe moyo Mungu anakujua
Jipe moyo yu pamoja nawe
Punde si punde ateleta faraja
Punde si punde ateleta faraja
Jibu kwa mahitaji yako.
Siku zatoshana lakini zote si sawa
Usiku inapokuja lazima kutapambazuka
Kila kitu na wakati wake
Leo ni machozi kesho ni nderemo
Mateso ya mwenye haki ni mengi
Lakini Bwana humponya nayo yote.
Jipe moyo Mungu anakujua
Jipe moyo yu pamoja nawe
Punde si punde ateleta faraja
Punde si punde ateleta faraja
Jibu kwa mahitaji yako
Jibu kwa mahitaji yako oh.
Alisema anawajua walio wake eeh
Na walio wake wanamjua
Anasikia kilio chao nao pia wamsikia.
Ooh wanamuita Baba na anawaita wana
Hata majira yabadilike najipa moyo.
Maana najua Bwana yu pamoja nami.
Hawezi niacha Baba Baba ooh
Jipe moyo Mungu anakujua
Jipe moyo yu pamoja nawe
Punde si punde ateleta faraja
Punde si punde ateleta faraja
Jibu kwa mahitaji yako
Jibu kwa mahitaji yako oh.
Yesu (Yesu)
Mfariji mwema (mfariji mwema)
Yesu (Yesu)
Hawezi kuacha (hawezi kuacha)
Punde si punde ateleta faraja (ataleta faraja)
Jipe moyo Mungu anakujua
Jipe moyo yu pamoja nawe
Punde si punde ateleta faraja
Punde si punde ateleta faraja
Jibu kwa mahitaji yako
Jibu kwa mahitaji yako oh.

Meaning & Inspiration
Jipe Moyo offers encouragement to a person enduring tears, hardship, and changing circumstances. Its central assurance is that God knows his people, remains with them, hears their cries, and will bring comfort. The contrast between night and dawn, present tears and future celebration, gives the song a steady hope without denying that suffering can be prolonged. Jesus is named as the good comforter who does not abandon those who belong to him.
Several lines closely echo biblical language. The statement that the righteous person has many troubles but the Lord delivers him from them reflects Psalm 34:19. The observation that everything has its proper time recalls Ecclesiastes 3:1, while the language of Christ knowing those who are his aligns with John 10:14. Together, these references support the song’s call to take courage: hardship changes, but divine knowledge, presence, and care remain dependable.
