Oh, Lord, I'm calling on Your name
My heart is heavy, my soul is in pain
I wasn't there when the shadows fell
I didn't hear the final words you had to tell
That day you left, I was miles away from you
And the silence is a weight I'm struggling through
Oh, Lolo Fidelia Nkiru Oragwuncha
Did you think of me when you whispered your last prayer?
I love you, Mom, now and forevermore
I'm looking up to Heaven, knockin' on the door
I wish I could turn back the hands of time
To hold your hand and keep you forever mine
If only I could whisper one last goodbye
But now my love is carried to the sky
I never knew that the sun would set so soon
I didn't know that day was our final noon
Please forgive me, Mom, I wasn't by your side
It wasn't for lack of love, it was the turning of the tide
My heart is aching, God, please help me see
If she knew how much she meant to me
I love you, Mom, now and forevermore
I'm looking up to Heaven, knockin' on the door
I wish I could turn back the hands of time
To hold your hand and keep you forever mine
If only I could whisper one last goodbye
But now my love is carried to the sky
Lord, carry my love to where she is resting now
Before the throne, beneath Your holy bow
Let her feel the warmth of every word I say
Even though she's gone, she's never far away
I love you, Mom, I love you, Mom
Lolo Fidelia, you were the light of my soul
Without your presence, I'm finding it hard to feel whole
But I trust in the Father, I trust in His grace
That one day I'll see you in a better place
Until that morning, I'll keep your memory near
Every single day, I'll shed a lonely tear
I love you, Mom, now and forevermore
I'm looking up to Heaven, knockin' on the door
I wish I could turn back the hands of time
To hold your hand and keep you forever mine
If only I could whisper one last goodbye
But now my love is carried to the sky
I love you, Mom
Lolo Fidelia Nkiru Oragwuncha
Rest in peace, my sweet Mama
I love you now and forever
Amen.
