(Upbeat rhythmic guitar riff, crisp percussion)
Oh, today is a day the Lord has made
We give Him glory, we give Him praise
For the life of Benard Miti
Yeah, we celebrate the grace
I wake up in the morning light
With gratitude within my soul
I know that everything is right
Because the Lord has made me whole
Another year has come to pass
I stand before Your throne today
I’m moving forward, growing fast
Guided by the words You say
Lord, thank You for the breath of life
Thank You for the love so deep
You take away the pain and strife
You are the promise that You keep
Today I’m celebrating my birthday
Because of You, my King and Lord
Benard Miti is blessed today
With every single rich reward
Full of grace and full of light
Your blessings falling down like rain
You turn the darkness into bright
And wash away the fear and pain
I’m asking for Your hand to lead
To walk beside me every day
You are the one I truly need
To clear the stones out of my way
Protect me from the hidden snare
Keep every evil far from me
I place my heart within Your care
For all the world to come and see
My God Almighty, Father dear
I bow before Your majesty
I have no reason for the fear
For You are always here with me
Today I’m celebrating my birthday
Because of You, my King and Lord
Benard Miti is blessed today
With every single rich reward
Full of grace and full of light
Your blessings falling down like rain
You turn the darkness into bright
And wash away the fear and pain
Oh, the rhythm of the spirit is moving
Can you feel the mercy today?
Benard is dancing, the heavens are choosing
To light up the narrow way
Blessings on blessings, favor on favor
This is the season of joy
My God is the one and only Savior
His grace I will always employ
Today I’m celebrating my birthday
Because of You, my King and Lord
Benard Miti is blessed today
With every single rich reward
Full of grace and full of light
Your blessings falling down like rain
You turn the darkness into bright
And wash away the fear and pain
Blessed birthday to me
Thank You, Lord
Benard Miti, walking in grace
Only You, my Almighty Father
Yeah, celebrate the day
