Baby Sister, Amazing Grace

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Started young with a heavy load, Just five years old on a lonesome road. When the world took your first light away, Somehow you found the strength to stay. Moved on far but you never fell, A quiet girl with a story to tell. [Chorus] Oh Sheila, look how far you've come, By grace and faith you overcome. A heart of gold, a soul so strong, This is your day, sing your song. Happy birthday, precious one, God's own daughter, His work well done. [Verse 2] Marched through college, held your ground, Forty-two years wearing the badge you found. You stood for right, you kept the peace, Your courage never once would cease. Then you laid it down, well-earned your rest, A faithful servant, one of the best. [Chorus] Oh Sheila, look how far you've come, By grace and faith you overcome. A heart of gold, a soul so strong, This is your day, sing your song. Happy birthday, precious one, God's own daughter, His work well done. [Bridge] Through the storm you held Him tight, When the darkness came, you found the light. And you're still standing, still so true, Heaven's smiling down on you. [Verse 3] Thirty-four years with your loving man, Marie and Aliyah taking your hand. Little Derek, your joy, your crown, No greater love has ever been found. Devoted heart to family and faith, Baby sister, you are amazing grace. [Chorus] Oh Sheila, look how far you've come, By grace and faith you overcome. A heart of gold, a soul so strong, This is your day, sing your song. [Outro] Happy birthday, sister mine, Blessed and loved through all of time.
