Grace Over Queen Temirate (Remix)

(Soft

piano

chords

fading

in)

Oh

Lord,

I

come

before

you

today

October

sixth,

a

day

of

breath

A

day

of

grace

It

is

my

birthday,

the

sun

rises

on

my

years

I

stand

in

the

silence,

grateful

for

all

my

tears

I

give

the

glory

to

the

Almighty

for

the

grace

For

sustaining

my

life

and

showing

me

Your

face

Though

my

heart

is

heavy

with

the

weight

of

time

I

thank

You

for

this

life,

for

the

rhythm

and

the

rhyme

I

remember

the

day

I

arrived

on

this

earth

Giving

thanks

to

the

ones

who

gave

me

my

birth

Oh,

to

my

late

mother,

your

spirit

stays

near

In

every

heartbeat,

I

still

hold

you

dear

And

Chief

Joseph,

my

father,

thank

you

for

the

light

For

guiding

my

steps

through

the

day

and

the

night

I

am

here,

I

am

standing,

I

am

whole

today

With

a

grateful

heart,

I

bow

down

to

pray

To

my

mon

tout,

my

love,

my

steady

hand

For

your

care

and

your

kindness

across

all

the

land

In

the

shadow

of

sorrow,

you

hold

me

so

tight

You

make

the

dark

seasons

feel

like

the

light

And

to

my

children,

my

treasures,

my

pride

Treasure,

Lke

danny,

you

stay

by

my

side

Opeyemi,

Sonto,

Emperor,

my

heart

is

your

home

With

you

by

my

side,

I

am

never

alone

Oh,

to

my

late

mother,

your

spirit

stays

near

In

every

heartbeat,

I

still

hold

you

dear

And

Chief

Joseph,

my

father,

thank

you

for

the

light

For

guiding

my

steps

through

the

day

and

the

night

I

am

here,

I

am

standing,

I

am

whole

today

With

a

grateful

heart,

I

bow

down

to

pray

To

my

friends,

my

companions,

the

ones

who

remain

You

share

in

the

joy

and

you

shelter

the

pain

I

love

you

all

dearly,

for

the

bond

that

we

share

For

the

moments

of

kindness

and

the

burdens

you

bear

The

years

move

like

shadows,

the

days

turn

to

gold

But

the

love

that

we

gather

is

the

story

I

hold

Oh,

to

my

late

mother,

your

spirit

stays

near

In

every

heartbeat,

I

still

hold

you

dear

And

Chief

Joseph,

my

father,

thank

you

for

the

light

For

guiding

my

steps

through

the

day

and

the

night

I

am

here,

I

am

standing,

I

am

whole

today

With

a

grateful

heart,

I

bow

down

to

pray

October

sixth...

a

life

of

grace

Thank

you

for

the

memory,

thank

you

for

the

space

Rest

in

peace,

live

in

love

Guided

by

the

light

from

above (

Music

slowly

fades

into

silence)
