Blessings for the Family (Remix)

Oh, Lord, we lift Your name on high

For the life You’ve given, we testify

I look around at the life I’ve been handed

By the grace of the King, my feet are firmly planted

For the gift of my mama, Lillian Maambo, so dear

For my father, Alfred Chimbwali, who casts out every fear

Lord, I thank You for the roots and the love that they gave

For the path that they walked and the souls that they save

I am grateful for the breath that I draw in each day

Guided by Your light, as I bow down to pray

Oh, God Almighty, I’m calling on You

Bless my beautiful family, make their dreams come true

For my lovely wife and the children You’ve sent

My heart is overflowing, on You I am bent

Bless my son Patrick, let him shine in his light

Keep my brother Maxwell through the day and the night

Yes Lord, bless us all with Your bounty and grace

Let Your glory shine down on this holy place

I’m asking for provision, Lord, help me to provide

With Your hand on my work, I have nothing to hide

Help me feed them with honor, help me lead with Your truth

From the days of my elders to the strength of my youth

For the house that we dwell in, for the bread on the plate

I surrender my worries, I surrender my fate

Thank You Jesus, for the love that surrounds every room

You’re the flower of life that continues to bloom

Oh, God Almighty, I’m calling on You

Bless my beautiful family, make their dreams come true

For my lovely wife and the children You’ve sent

My heart is overflowing, on You I am bent

Bless my son Patrick, let him shine in his light

Keep my brother Maxwell through the day and the night

Yes Lord, bless us all with Your bounty and grace

Let Your glory shine down on this holy place

Glory, glory, look at what the Lord has done

Blessing every daughter, blessing every son

Lillian and Alfred, the legacy stands

Held in the safety of Your nail-scarred hands

Praise Him, praise Him, let the heavens ring out

This is what faith is, without any doubt

Patrick is brilliant, a star in the sky

Maxwell is rising, with his head held up high

I see my wife and my children, the joy of my soul

You’ve made us a family, You’ve made us all whole

I’ll labor in love, Lord, with You by my side

With Your spirit as shelter, with You as my guide

Hallelujah, for the harvest is coming today

I’ll walk in Your promise, I’ll walk in Your way

Oh, God Almighty, I’m calling on You

Bless my beautiful family, make their dreams come true

For my lovely wife and the children You’ve sent

My heart is overflowing, on You I am bent

Bless my son Patrick, let him shine in his light

Keep my brother Maxwell through the day and the night

Yes Lord, bless us all with Your bounty and grace

Let Your glory shine down on this holy place

Yes Lord, bless Lillian and Alfred tonight

Bless my family, keep them all in Your light

Amen, amen, we give You the praise

For the rest of our lives, for all of our days

Thank You Jesus.
