Gift From God

(Ayy, yoh)

Deep in my heart, I feel the distance

Thinking of you, my sister, my light

Mweemba, this one is for you

I sit here and I think of all the memories we share

My mother, my queen, I miss you more than I can bear

You are a gift from God, a treasure in my sight

I pray to the heavens that He keeps you in His light

I see you working hard, mama, may the Lord bless you more

Sending you my love, knocking on heaven’s door

Oh, you are my gift from God, Mweemba

I miss you, I miss you, mama

May the good Lord keep you, may He make you strong

I am singing out this heartbreak in my song

Yeah, you are my gift from God, Mweemba

Sylvia, my only sister, you are part of my soul

I miss you so much, it’s hard to stay in control

If you have your parents, hold them close and pray

'Cause I’m here weeping, wishing for a better day

I feel the pain, it cuts deep inside my chest

But God is alive, and He will handle the rest

Oh, you are my gift from God, Mweemba

I miss you, I miss you, mama

May the good Lord keep you, may He make you strong

I am singing out this heartbreak in my song

Yeah, you are my gift from God, Mweemba

Life is a struggle, we keep on pushing through

Everything I do, I’m doing it for you

No matter the distance, no matter the pain

I’m looking for sunshine inside of the rain

More life to you, my dear

God bless you, can you hear me?

Mweemba, I miss you

(Ayy, yoh) Rest in peace, stay strong.
