For
a
man
who
stands
tall
Mr.
Ayidan
Richard
We
celebrate
you
today
Mr.
Ayidan
Richard,
I’
m
speaking
from
the
heart
You’
ve
been
the
anchor
right
from
the
very
start
Looking
after
our
children,
guiding
every
way
Making
sure
they’
re
provided
for
every
single
day
It’
s
not
just
talk,
you
put
in
all
the
work
Shielding
them
from
trouble,
shielding
them
from
hurt
Whatever
they
need,
you’
re
always
standing
there
With
a
heart
full
of
kindness
and
a
spirit
so
rare
Oh,
Mr.
Richard,
we
say
thank
you
today
For
all
the
sacrifice
you
make
along
the
way
May
God
bless
your
hands
and
the
ground
where
you
tread
May
His
favor
follow
everywhere
you’
re
led
We
honor
you,
we
celebrate
your
name
For
a
man
like
you,
there’
s
truly
no
shame
From
the
school
fees
paid
to
the
books
they
hold
Your
generosity
is
worth
more
than
gold
Keziah,
Vanessa,
and
Gavin
too
They
all
join
their
voices
to
say
thank
you
David
is
cheering,
we’
re
all
in
the
light
Because
you
made
the
future
look
so
bright
You’
re
a
pillar
of
strength,
a
father
indeed
Always
ready
to
plant
a
beautiful
seed

May
the
Almighty
keep
you
from
every
evil
eye
Under
the
sun
and
beneath
the
open
sky
Good
health
is
your
portion,
sickness
has
to
flee
Safety
on
the
road,
wherever
you
may
be
No
accidents,
no
sorrow,
only
peace
in
your
life
Cutting
through
the
darkness
just
like
a
knife
We
see
the
effort,
we
see
the
love
you
pour
Opening
the
windows
and
opening
the
door
Life
is
a
journey,
and
you
lead
the
pack
Giving
so
much,
never
looking
back
Your
legacy
grows
with
every
act
of
grace
We
see
the
gratitude
upon
every
face
Stay
blessed,
stay
lifted,
keep
shining
your
light
We’
re
praying
for
you
with
all
of
our
might
Oh,
Mr.
Richard,
