Josh, You Fought the Good Fight
Read the Lyrics
Yeah, yeah
Ooh, Josh, you shine on
Heavy hearts but hands raised high
We celebrate your light
Verse 1
You walked with purpose, grace in stride
Never passed a soul in need without giving light
From Bedford streets to London skies
You touched hearts, you changed lives
You called her “Mother,” not just “Mum”
With words so wild, you'd make us laugh and run
Made up language, made up joy
A soul so rare, a golden boy
Chorus
You fought the good fight, you finished the race
Kept your faith in every place
33 years, but a legacy long
Now you’re dancing where you belong
No more pain, no more cries
You're soaring high in Heaven’s skies
Josh, your light will never dim
We’ll carry your love deep within
Verse 2
Holistic healer, faith so strong
Even in the dark, you sang your song
Sickness couldn’t hold you back
You flipped the script, stayed on track
Health, devotion, scripture flow
You lit the path so others know
Man of God, heart open wide
Angel in disguise, sanctified
Bridge
Ohhh oh oh
Yeah, yeah
We miss you; we love you, Josh
Chorus
You fought the good fight, you finished the race
Held on strong with God’s embrace
Though you're gone, your spirit stays
In every laugh, in every praise
Kadeem still hears your voice at night
Jacqui misses your morning light
Your children and the family grieve with love so wide
We carry your heart right by our side
Crown of righteousness, now you wear
Up in glory, shining rare
Josh, your story’s just begun
You left love for everyone
Mmm hmm
Rest well, Josh…
We feel you here
Verse 3
You weren’t just a brother, son, or friend
You were a force that won’t ever end
With every post, every call, every smile
You walked that faith filled extra mile
From Mama’s eyes to heaven’s gate
You taught us how to celebrate
Through storms and pain, you stayed divine
Now your soul's forever shine
Oh oh oh, celebrate, celebrate
Chorus
You fought the good fight, you finished the race
Heaven shines from your embrace
We’ll meet again beyond the blue
But till then, we live like you
With love, compassion, open arms
Your faith, your smile, your endless charm
Josh, we rise and testify
Your life was fire, you touched the sky
Outro
Rest, Josh
We’ll see you in the morning light
You’re dancing in eternal life
It was both an honour and a privilege to have known Josh and to have played a part in his life. I had the opportunity to teach him, encourage him, and watch him grow. I have also had the privilege of serving alongside his dear mother for many years. She has faithfully served as one of my Assistant Pastors.
Josh was deeply loved, and his life touched those who had the privilege of knowing him. His passing leaves a space that words can never completely fill. Yet the memories, the love, and the impact of his life will remain.
It was one of the most solemn honours of my ministry to officiate at Josh’s funeral service. It was also a privilege to stand alongside his family during such a deeply painful time. To his mother, Jacqui; Dean, his loving brother; and the entire family, may you continue to find strength in God. May precious memories bring comfort, and may His presence surround you with peace.
“The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart.” Psalm 34:18
Josh will always be remembered with warmth, affection, and gratitude. Rest peacefully, Josh. Your life mattered. You were loved, and you will never be forgotten.
