[female vocals] Oh,
glory
to
the
Highest
A
life
of
a
hundred
and
twenty-six
years
We
celebrate
the
light
today
At
four
in
the
morning
the
heavens
drew
near
To
call
home
a
mother,
to
silence
her
fear
Maitû
Wa
Ndirangu,
your
journey
was
long
One
hundred
and
twenty-six
years
of
a
song
You
walked
through
the
fire,
a
Mau
Mau
of
old
A
story
of
courage
that
needs
to
be
told
With
sacrifice
written
in
lines
on
your
face
You
finished
the
race
by
the
power
of
grace
Maitû
Wa
Ndirangu,
a
legacy
bright
You’
ve
stepped
from
the
shadows
into
the
light
A
life
never
forgotten,
a
love
so
profound
Rest
now
in
peace
on
that
holy
ground
Thank
You
Jesus,
for
the
life
she
gave
Beyond
the
darkness,
beyond
the
grave
Dickson
remembers
the
strength
in
your
hand
The
matriarch
anchor
of
all
of
the
land
You
witnessed
the
history,
the
rise
and
the
fall
But
love
was
the
greatest
answer
of
all
Resilience
was
built
in
the
soul
that
you
kept
While
the
generations
around
you
have
stepped
Through
joy
and
through
sorrow,
through
winter
and
spring
We
honor
the
song
that
your
spirit
would
sing
Maitû
Wa
Ndirangu,
a
legacy
bright
You’
ve
stepped
from
the
shadows
into
the
light
A
life
never
forgotten,
a
love
so
profound
Rest
now
in
peace
on
that
holy
ground
Thank
You
Jesus,
for
the
life
she
gave
Beyond
the
darkness,
beyond
the
grave
Oh,
heaven
is
calling,
she’
s
finally
home
No
longer
weary,
no
longer
to
roam
Praise
Him
for
grace
that
carried
her
through
The
love
of
a
mother,
so
steady
and
true
Yes
Lord,
we
thank
You
for
the
time
we
had
With
a
heart
so
golden
and
a
spirit
not
sad
Though
words
feel
so
small
for
the
loss
that
we
bear
Your
memory
lingers
in
the
stillness
of
air
One
hundred
and
twenty-six
years
of
the
light
Now
shining
eternal
in
the
middle
of
night
We
carry
your
wisdom,
we
carry
your
name
With
hearts
full
of
wonder
and
a
holy
flame
Sleep
well,
dear
mother,
in
the
arms
of
the
King
Where
the
angels
gather
and
the
saints
all
sing
Maitû
Wa
Ndirangu,
a
legacy
bright
You’
ve
stepped
from
the
shadows
into
the
light
A
life
never
forgotten,
a
love
so
profound
Rest
now
in
peace
on
that
holy
ground
Thank
You
Jesus,
for
the
life
she
gave
Beyond
the
darkness,
beyond
the
grave
Never
forgotten,
Maitû
Wa
Ndirangu
Your
sacrifice
lives
in
all
that
we
do
Amen,
amen,
she
is
home
at
last
Glory,
glory,
the
storm
has
passed
Rest
in
peace,
rest
in
love
Amen.
