Dear Father of the Nation
You lead this nation to hold hands;
You inspired peace, even on foreign sands.
You are the world’s most respected man;
You’ve encouraged dreams, and the words: “I can”.
Now that you walk on Heaven’s shores;
And live in a home with God’s hand-made doors;
We pray, that we can make you look down and smile;
As we pass on your legacy, through the generation aisle.
Dear Nelson Mandela, may peace now be with you;
And thanks for your love;
From: A global family, missing You.
