[male vocals] Oh,
heaven
hear
our
prayer
today
For
the
woman
who
paved
the
way
Mom
Lilian
Mponda,
we
bow
our
heads
in
grace
Looking
back
at
the
years,
seeing
God
upon
your
face
Tobias,
Margret,
Jones,
Rose,
and
Bupe,
we
stand
Reflecting
on
the
comfort
of
your
steady,
guiding
hand
You
walked
the
lonely
path
when
the
world
felt
cold
and
gray
You
carried
every
burden,
you
knelt
down
low
to
pray
Oh,
Lilian
Mponda,
you
are
our
hero,
yes
you
are
You
carried
us
through
shadows,
you
guided
every
star
With
God
as
your
companion,
you
never
walked
alone
You
built
a
house
of
love,
you
turned
the
heart
to
stone
We
love
you
Mom,
we
thank
you,
for
all
you
sacrificed
Your
life
is
like
a
sermon,
a
light
of
Jesus
Christ
No
hand
to
help
beside
you,
no
shoulder
for
the
weight
But
faith
was
in
your
pocket,
and
hope
was
at
the
gate
You
rose
up
every
morning
to
give
us
all
you
had
You
took
away
the
sorrow,
you
took
away
the
sad
Yes
Lord,
you
kept
us
sheltered,
beneath
the
Father's
wing
To
you,
our
dearest
Mother,
our
gratitude
we
bring
Oh,
Lilian
Mponda,
you
are
our
hero,
yes
you
are
You
carried
us
through
shadows,
you
guided
every
star
With
God
as
your
companion,
you
never
walked
alone
You
built
a
house
of
love,
you
turned
the
heart
to
stone
We
love
you
Mom,
we
thank
you,
for
all
you
sacrificed
Your
life
is
like
a
sermon,
a
light
of
Jesus
Christ
May
your
days
be
lengthened
by
the
mercy
of
the
Lord
May
peace
be
in
your
spirit,
may
joy
be
your
reward
We
love
you,
Mom,
praise
Him
We
see
the
grace
of
God
in
every
wrinkle,
every
line
Thank
you
Jesus,
for
this
blessing,
truly
divine
Tobias,
Margret,
Jones,
Rose,
and
Bupe
agree
That
you
are
the
finest
treasure
that
we
will
ever
see
Long
life
to
you,
our
Mother,
may
blessings
overflow
Everywhere
you
step,
let
the
holy
spirit
grow
Glory
to
the
Most
High,
for
the
mother
that
we
know
Amen,
amen,
let
the
blessing
continue
to
show
