From humblest of roots rose
A beacon of light,
A brave soldier of the Cross.
Unwavering in faith and obedience
He gave his all for the Master,
Ever led by His divine presence.
He traversed with a purpose clear,
Crossed borders far and wide,
Bringing hope and light, without fear.
Dear Lord, this humble servant of your grace
Has now fought the good fight,
Kept the faith, and finished the race
And now he is coming home.
Great must be his reward, for all he's done
And greater still, Heaven’s joyous celebration
Around the Father's throne!
