1st
Verse:
In
1919, you came into this world and the future was unclear.
Fear
and poverty was all around, yet you persevered.
Against
all the odds, you made it through.
And
Jesus came down and He rescued you.
He
blessed you with His love, peace and joy.
Chorus:
And
you're a lady of faith, a faith passed down from your Mother.
I
can see the light of Heaven in your eyes.
Yes
you're a lady of faith, you inspire all the people
Who
have gathered all around you in your life.
2nd
Verse:
As
time passed by, you found a love. A good man, we all agree.
Together
with the grace of God, you made a family.
Though
times were hard, you still came through,
As
the children spread their wings and flew.
So
you prayed that God would guide them, and comfort you.
(Chorus)
3rd
Verse:
And
now we’re here to celebrate your life, at the threshold of a new year,
As
we face the coming days with both joy and fear.
Your
heritage for history is proclaimed through your family.
As
we serve the Lord with praises in our heart.
(Chorus)
…Yes
we’ve gathered all around you in your life.
