General's Promise

[male vocals] Oh,

glory

to

the

Highest

I

hear

your

voice,

Mother,

guiding

my

way

Yes

Lord,

thank

You

Jesus

I

am

Wicklif

John

Moussa,

they

call

me

the

General

of

the

line

Behind

the

uniform

and

the

silence,

I

leave

the

worry

behind

There

is

a

story

in

my

spirit,

a

promise

written

in

the

light

And

a

prayer

that

keeps

on

burning,

shining

through

the

darkest

night

I

carry

the

weight

of

honor,

I

carry

the

love

you

gave

Maman

Rosalie,

you

are

the

blessing

that

I

crave

Yes

Lord,

Hallelujah

Maman

Rosalie,

you

are

watching

over

me

From

the

heaven’

s

gates,

you’

re

the

soul

that

I

can

see

I

followed

your

path,

and

I

kept

the

faith

so

true

General

Wicklif

John

Moussa,

walking

close

to

you

Praise

Him,

yes

He’

s

the

King

Maman

Rosalie,

hear

the

song

I

sing

I

dreamed

of

being

a

healer,

mending

every

broken

part

Or

teaching

young

minds

the

wisdom,

keeping

hope

inside

the

heart

But

you

saw

a

different

journey,

a

life

meant

for

the

call

You

saw

the

strength

in

the

struggle,

you

saw

me

standing

tall

So

I

accepted

the

discipline,

I

marched

through

the

fire

and

rain

And

every

step

I

take,

Mama,

I

do

it

in

your

name

Thank

You

Jesus,

for

the

grace

Maman

Rosalie,

you

are

watching

over

me

From

the

heaven’

s

gates,

you’

re

the

soul

that

I

can

see

I

followed

your

path,

and

I

kept

the

faith

so

true

General

Wicklif

John

Moussa,

walking

close

to

you

Praise

Him,

yes

He’

s

the

King

Maman

Rosalie,

hear

the

song

I

sing

Oh,

Papa

Yahweh,

You

hold

the

control

You

protect

the

General,

You

steady

my

soul

Though

the

world

is

changing,

and

the

shadows

may

grow

Your

love

is

the

anchor,

the

only

life

I

know

Amen,

glory

to

the

Most

High

So

here

I

stand

in

the

silence,

soldier

of

the

morning

light

Remembering

your

memory,

keeping

everything

in

sight

I

didn’

t

choose

this

uniform

just

for

the

sake

of

the

pride

I

chose

it

for

the

mother

who

had

heaven

on

her

side

Maman

Rosalie,

the

memory

is

sweet

and

deep

A

promise

to

a

spirit

that

I

know

I’

m

gonna

keep

Yes

Praise

Him
