Verse 1

LAIFOYA l’apa Jesu,
Laifoya l’aiya Re,
Labe ojij’ife Re,
L’okan mi o simi.
Gbo ohun angeli ni,
Orin won d’eti mi,

Lati okun jaspi.
Laifoya l’apa Jesu, Laifoya l’aiya Re,
Labe ojij’ife Re, L’okan mi o simi.

Laifoya l’apa Jesu,
Mo bo low’aniyan,
Mo bo lowo idanwo,
Ese ko n’ipa mo.
Mo bo lowo ‘banuje,

O ku idanwo die!
O k’omije die!

Verse 3

Jesu abo okan mi,
Jesu ti ku fun mi,

Tit’oru y’o koja,
Titi ngo fi r’imole
Ni ebute ogo.
