Sifaeli Mwabuka - Tunaye Mungu Anayejibu Lyrics
Lyrics
Tunaye huyu Mungu tunaye
Tunaye anayejibu maombi yetu
Tunaye huyu Mungu tunaye
Tunaye anayejibu maombi yetu
Tunaye huyu Mungu tunaye
Tunaye anayejibu maombi yetu
Tunaye huyu Mungu tunaye
Tunaye anayejibu maombi yetu
Walijua tuna Mungu tulipopita kwenye majaribu
Hayo mawazo yao
Walisema tuna imani huku malipo yatusonga sana
Hayo mawazo yao
Walijua tuna Mungu tulipopita kwenye majaribu
Hayo mawazo yao
Walisema tuna imani huku malipo yatusonga sana
Hayo mawazo yao
Hawakujua jaribu letu ni la kitambo kidogo
Mungu wetu ni mwema
Hawakujua Mungu wetu yeye hawahi wala kuchelewa
Ni yeye baba
Waambie baba wajue wewe upo
Waambie baba wajue unatupenda
Waambie baba wajue wewe upo
Waambie baba wajue unatupenda
Tunaye huyu Mungu tunaye
Tunaye anayejibu maombi yetu
Tunaye huyu Mungu tunaye
Tunaye anayejibu maombi yetu
Tunaye huyu Mungu tunaye
Tunaye anayejibu maombi yetu
Tunaye huyu Mungu tunaye
Tunaye anayejibu maombi yetu
Ayubu alipojaribiwa
Watu wengi wakainuka wakasema ametenda dhambi
Ndugu na jamaa walipomwona Ayubu
Alipopitia mengi wakasema amemwacha Mungu
Ayubu alipojaribiwa
Watu wengi wakainuka wakasema ametenda dhambi
Ndugu na jamaa walipomwona Ayubu
Alipopitia mengi wakasema amemwacha Mungu
Mke wake naya akasema kufuru Mungu ufe Ayubu
Ndugu na jamaa nao wakainuka na kusema
Ayubu umetenda dhambi
Mke wake naya akasema kufuru Mungu ufe Mungu wangu
Ndugu na jamaa nao wakainuka na kusema
Ayubu umetenda dhambi
Ayubu akanyamaza kimya
Akamwacha bwana asimame amtetee mwenyewe
Ayubu alijua yupo Mungu
Anayempitisha hayo ili kumwongezea imani
Ayubu akanyamaza na kusema
Labda Mungu ashuke aseme mwenyewe
Mungu nayemwamini
Tunaye huyu Mungu tunaye
Tunaye anayejibu maombi yetu
Tunaye huyu Mungu tunaye
Tunaye anayejibu maombi yetu
Tunaye huyu Mungu tunaye
Tunaye anayejibu maombi yetu
Tunaye huyu Mungu tunaye
Tunaye anayejibu maombi yetu

Meaning & Inspiration
Sifaeli Mwabuka's "Tunaye Mungu Anayejibu," released as a single in March 2018, is a powerful anthem of unwavering faith, declaring the existence of a God who actively hears and answers the prayers of His people. The song's core message is one of steadfast assurance, even amidst the most trying circumstances. It speaks directly to those who may feel overlooked or abandoned during their trials, reminding them that their struggles are not unseen nor unheard by the divine. The narrative woven through the lyrics reflects a profound understanding of human doubt and the judgmental nature of the world when faced with adversity, drawing a clear parallel to the biblical account of Job.
The lyrics poignantly describe how observers, friends, and even family misinterpret suffering, often attributing it to sin or a lack of faith. This resonates deeply with the experience of Job, whose own wife urged him to curse God and die, and whose companions insisted his afflictions were a direct consequence of his iniquities (Job 2:9-10, Job 4:7-9). Mwabuka highlights how these external voices can sow seeds of doubt, suggesting that possessing faith is insufficient when hardship seems insurmountable. However, the song firmly pushes back against this perspective, asserting that the trials we face are not necessarily indicators of divine displeasure but rather opportunities for God to reveal His faithfulness and deepen our trust, much like God allowed Job to endure immense suffering to showcase His sovereignty and ultimate deliverance (Job 1:12, Job 42:10-17).
The recurring declaration, "Tunaye huyu Mungu tunaye, tunaye anayejibu maombi yetu" (We have this God, we have Him, He answers our prayers), acts as a powerful declaration of truth. It’s a bold assertion against the whispers of doubt and despair. The song draws strength from the understanding that God's timing is perfect, not bound by human impatience or perceived delays. This echoes the Psalmist's declaration, "Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!" (Psalm 27:14). The lyrics encourage listeners to direct their pleas to this ever-present Father, assuring them of His love and His active presence in their lives, a sentiment beautifully captured in verses like Philippians 4:6-7 which exhorts us to present our requests to God. By focusing on the divine capacity to answer, Mwabuka inspires resilience and encourages a posture of expectant hope, reminding us that our God is not distant but intimately involved in the lives of those who call upon Him. The song's strength lies not in complex musical arrangements but in its profound and direct message, a comforting reminder of God's unwavering commitment to His children, making it a deeply encouraging piece for anyone navigating life's inevitable challenges.
