She was the fourth generation of kindness and patience The knack for love flowed strong in her blood So she thought it not strange bearing my pain And believing me each step of the way
Here’s to the lady so worthy of praise Here’s to the lady always And here’s to the love that shines in her eyes And the joy she brings to my life
Oh, I find her on her knees, praying for me When I thought I could not go on Rubies and pearls and all the kingdoms of this world I give to her in this song
Here’s to the lady so worthy of praise Here’s to the lady always And here’s to the love that shines in her eyes And the joy she brings to my life
Here’s to the lady so worthy of praise Here’s to the lady always And here’s to the love that shines in her eyes And the joy she brings to my life
