“Shine Your Way”
(A Song for Mum)
Verse 1
In the still of July, under Nairobi skies,
She called us close, with love in her eyes.
One by one, we bowed our heads,
As blessings poured from all she said.
Pre-Chorus
She spoke of grace, of faith, of peace,
Of love that time could never cease.
Though sorrow lingers in our chest,
She asked we let her gently rest.
Chorus
Shine your way, Mum,
Through the stars, through the light.
We’ll walk your words,
We’ll hold them tight.
Though we weep, your love remains,
A guiding voice through joy and pain.
Shine your way, Mum…
Until we meet again.
Verse 2
Behind the door, where silence grew,
We wept alone, but always knew—
She stood by us, through every, our shelter, safe and warm.
Pre-Chorus
Now dreams may whisper when night falls,
A gentle echo through the walls.
Though we released what we adored,
Her light lives on in every word.
Chorus
Shine your way, Mum,
Through the stars, through the light.
We’ll walk your words,
We’ll hold them tight.
Though we weep, your love remains,
A guiding voice through joy and pain.
Shine your way, Mum…
Until we meet again.
Bridge
You taught us how to live, to love,
To raise our hands to God above.
Through every vow, through every prayer,
We feel your soul still everywhere.
Final Chorus
Shine your way, Mum,
Rest in peace, in Heaven’s grace.
Your legacy we now embrace.
Though you're gone, you're still so near—
In every act, in every tear.
Shine your way, Mum…
And we'll meet you there.
