Here's to You, First Lady

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a light that shines through every season A grace that carries through the years A faithful heart that beats with purpose Through every joy and every tear Ninety candles burning bright A testament to holy light [Chorus] We thank You, Lord, for this blessing For a life so full of love For the hands that healed and held us Sent from heaven up above What a gift, what a glory What a beautiful, beautiful story [Verse 2] Sixty-four years walking side by side With Edward, your forever love And though he's resting now in glory You feel him smiling from above You still miss him every day But his love will never fade away [Chorus] We thank You, Lord, for this blessing For a life so full of love For the hands that healed and held us Sent from heaven up above What a gift, what a glory What a beautiful, beautiful story [Bridge] Through every storm your faith stood steady You nursed the ones who needed care A Ledsinger woman, strong and ready With a heart too big not to share [Verse 3] Now Darlet, Monica, and Eric Are coming from so far and wide To gather 'round you, Barbara Our First Lady, our joy, our pride From Trinidad to Canada Your love has reached across the miles And Barbara, at ninety You still light up the room with your smile One of ten, now three remain But oh, the legacy you've made [Chorus] We thank You, Lord, for this blessing For a life so full of love For the hands that healed and held us Sent from heaven up above What a gift, what a glory Barbara, what a beautiful story [Outro] May hope and faith keep holding you May healing wrap around your days May godly love surround you, Barbara In all your singing, dancing ways Here's to you, our First Lady Kiss, kiss, love love and byeeeeeee!
