Oh
yeah,
sing
for
the
queens
This
one
is
for
my
Bertha
And
for
every
woman
walking
in
grace
Listen
now
Oh
my
Bertha,
you
carry
a
light
so
bright
A
guiding
star
shining
through
the
darkest
night
I
see
the
spirit
of
Esther
deep
inside
your
soul
When
the
world
gets
heavy,
you
take
full
control
You
stand
for
the
truth
when
the
crowd
turns
away
With
courage
and
wisdom
in
all
that
you
say
If
God
placed
you
here,
there
is
purpose
in
your
hand
If
God
placed
you
here,
there
is
purpose
in
your
hand
A
queen
standing
tall,
the
finest
in
the
land
Oh,
be
an
Esther,
stand
for
what
is
right
Be
a
Ruth,
keeping
loyalty
in
your
sight
Be
a
Lydia,
with
a
heart
that’
s
open
wide
With
the
grace
of
the
heavens
right
by
your
side
My
Bertha,
you’
re
the
gold
in
my
eyes
A
woman
of
virtue
under
these
African
skies
And
when
the
path
is
rocky
and
the
mountain
is
high
I
see
the
Ruth
within
you,
with
the
fire
in
your
eye
You
walk
the
extra
mile
when
the
rest
have
gone
to
sleep
A
promise
of
devotion
is
the
promise
that
you
keep
You
don’
t
ever
quit
when
the
storms
start
to
blow
Your
spirit
is
a
beauty
that
the
world
needs
to
know
Keep
holding
on,
darling,
stay
true
to
the
call
For
the
effort
you’
re
making
is
worth
it
after
all
Oh,
be
an
Esther,
stand
for
what
is
right
Be
a
Ruth,
keeping
loyalty
in
your
sight
Be
a
Lydia,
with
a
heart
that’
s
open
wide
With
the
grace
of
the
heavens
right
by
your
side
My
Bertha,
you’
re
the
gold
in
my
eyes
A
woman
of
virtue
under
these
African
skies
Lydia,
let
your
home
be
a
place
of
relief
A
generous
spirit
bringing
hope
in
our
grief
Let
your
hands
be
open,
let
your
heart
be
strong
Helping
every
stranger
as
you
travel
along
It’
s
a
beautiful
purpose,
it’
s
a
beautiful
life
I’
m
proud
to
be
walking
beside
you,
my
wife
So
heed
that
inner
voice,
let
it
lead
you
ahead
Don’
t
fear
the
challenges
that
linger
in
your
bed
You
are
designed
for
the
moment,
designed
for
the
stage
A
brand
new
chapter
on
a
beautiful
page
From
the
strength
of
your
heart
to
the
touch
of
your
hand
You
are
the
rhythm
that
moves
through
this
land
My
Bertha,
my
love,
keep
shining
so
clear
There
is
nothing
to
worry,
there
is
nothing
to
fear
Oh,
be
an
Esther,
stand
for
what
is
right
Be
a
Ruth,
keeping
loyalty
in
your
sight
Be
a
Lydia,
with
a
heart
that’
s
open
wide
With
the
grace
of
the
heavens
right
by
your
side
My
Bertha,
you’
re
the
gold
in
my
eyes
A
woman
of
virtue
under
these
African
skies
Yes,
keep
shining,
Bertha
Be
an
Esther,
be
a
Ruth,
be
a
Lydia
To
every
woman,
keep
your
heads
held
high (

Stay
beautiful,
my
love
Yeah,
truly
blessed
