Resting In His Arms, Milumbe (Remix)

Oh, heaven opened up its doors

Rest now, sweet Milumbe, in the light

The calendar is frozen on a day I can't erase

Twenty-sixth of June, the world lost all its grace

Milumbe Chilube, you were the heartbeat of my soul

Now the silence echoes where you used to make me whole

The flowers in the garden seem to bow their heads in prayer

I'm reaching for your hand but find only empty air

I thank You Jesus for the time that we were blessed to share

Oh, glory to the One who keeps you in His care

Milumbe, oh Milumbe, you've gone to take your rest

Safe within the harbor, leaning on your Savior's chest

No more pain or sorrow, no more tears to cry

Just singing with the angels in the golden sky

Yes Lord, you're free, resting in His love

Milumbe, watching from the heavens up above

I remember how you walked, a witness to the grace

I see your gentle spirit every time I see your face

Milumbe Chilube, you taught me how to stand

Even when the valley felt like desert shifting sand

I'm holding onto promises that death is not the end

Though my heart is breaking, on Your word I must depend

Praise Him for the memory that lingers like a song

It's the steady rhythm that keeps me moving on

Milumbe, oh Milumbe, you've gone to take your rest

Safe within the harbor, leaning on your Savior's chest

No more pain or sorrow, no more tears to cry

Just singing with the angels in the golden sky

Yes Lord, you're free, resting in His love

Milumbe, watching from the heavens up above

And though the sting of parting cuts deeper than the knife

You've stepped into the glory of a never-ending life

I’ll carry all your lessons, I’ll hold them in my chest

Until the day we gather, and I’m reunited with the best

Hallelujah, hallelujah, the journey is complete

Resting at the master's feet

I miss your voice, Milumbe, I miss the way you prayed

But in the house of mercy, you will never be afraid

I’m trying to be strong, though the road is long and steep

I’ll cherish every promise that you taught me how to keep

Thank You Jesus for the legacy you left behind

Of a mother’s heart so tender, so beautiful and kind

Milumbe, oh Milumbe, you've gone to take your rest

Safe within the harbor, leaning on your Savior's chest

No more pain or sorrow, no more tears to cry

Just singing with the angels in the golden sky

Yes Lord, you're free, resting in His love

Milumbe, watching from the heavens up above

Rest now, Milumbe, rest in peace

My love for you will never cease

Amen, amen, we'll meet again

Glory, glory, rest in peace.
