[female
vocals] (
Gentle
piano
melody
swells
into
a
rich,
warm
soundscape)
Oh,
we
lift
our
hearts
today
For
the
gift
of
a
life,
for
a
faithful
man
We
celebrate
the
goodness
of
the
Lord
Nkem,
my
heart,
my
crown,
my
king
Today
the
heavens
join
the
song
I
sing
I
look
at
you
and
see
the
light
of
grace
The
steady
kindness
written
on
your
face
From 2010
when
we
were
starting
out
Two
corpers
standing,
clearing
every
doubt
We
had
so
little
but
we
had
the
dream
Walking
by
faith
within
a
holy
stream
Look
at
the
beauty
that
the
Lord
has
grown
From
those
small
seeds
that
we
had
blindly
sown
I
celebrate
the
man
you
are
today
In
every
single
word
and
act
you
pray
Oh,
Nkem,
you
are
the
blessing
sent
from
God
A
mantle
of
strength
upon
this
earthly
sod
My
king,
my
love,
my
partner
in
the
light
You
turn
the
darkest
morning
into
bright
I
honor
you,
I
lift
your
name
so
high
Under
the
watch
of
our
Father
in
the
sky
Happy
birthday
to
the
heart
that
leads
us
home
With
you,
my
darling,
I
am
never
alone
I
think
back
to
the
days
of
humble
starts
With
nothing
in
our
hands
but
trusting
hearts
When
our
first
son
arrived
to
change
our
world
Your
protective
banner
was
firmly
unfurled
You
told
me,
'Rest,
don't
worry
for
the
job'
You
kept
the
peace
while
others
had
to
sob
You
took
the
weight
so
I
could
breathe
again
Through
every
season,
you
were
steady
then
And
when
we
got
that
car,
the
first
one
earned
You
gave
it
up,
the
lessons
that
I
learned
While
you
would
walk
to
work
so
I
could
drive
You
kept
the
pulse
of
all
our
dreams
alive
Oh,
Nkem,
you
are
the
blessing
sent
from
God
A
mantle
of
strength
upon
this
earthly
sod
My
king,
my
love,
my
partner
in
the
light
You
turn
the
darkest
morning
into
bright
I
honor
you,
I
lift
your
name
so
high
Under
the
watch
of
our
Father
in
the
sky
Happy
birthday
to
the
heart
that
leads
us
home
With
you,
my
darling,
I
am
never
alone
For
every
sacrifice
nobody
sees
For
every
prayer
you
whispered
on
your
knees
For
choosing
me
to
lead
and
make
the
choice
For
giving
me
the
freedom
of
my
voice
I
honor
you,
I
honor
you,
my
king
For
all
the
peace
and
all
the
joy
you
bring
Your
legacy
is
written
in
our
home
In
all
the
seeds
of
kindness
you
have
sown
Oh,
Nkem,
you
are
the
blessing
sent
from
God
A
mantle
of
strength
upon
this
earthly
sod
My
king,
my
love,
my
partner
in
the
light
You
turn
the
darkest
morning
into
bright
I
honor
you,
I
lift
your
name
so
high
Under
the
watch
of
our
Father
in
the
sky
Happy
birthday
to
the
heart
that
leads
us
home
With
you,
my
darling,
I
am
never
alone
My
king,
my
crown,
my
love
Sent
from
the
heavens
above
Happy
birthday
to
you,
Nkem
We
celebrate
your
life
today
In
the
light
of
His
grace
Amen
