Chale,
eiii,
listen
to
the
story
Every
mother,
every
queen
This
one
is
for
you
You
carried
the
weight
when
the
world
was
cold
Your
hands
were
rough,
but
your
heart
was
gold
You
skipped
your
meals
so
the
table
would
fill
Working
all
day
with
a
weary
will
You
gave
them
the
light,
you
gave
them
the
sun
But
when
you
were
tired,
and
your
race
was
done
They
turned
their
backs,
they
looked
the
other
way
But
mama,
look
up,
you
will
see
a
new
day
Oh,
the
strength
of
a
mother,
steady
and
true
You
gave
your
all,
and
they
neglected
you
But
God
sees
the
labor,
he
sees
every
tear
Your
reward
is
coming,
have
no
fear
Rise
up
mama,
let
the
spirit
glow
You
are
a
diamond,
let
the
world
know
They
took
your
kindness,
they
took
your
grace
But
they
forgot
who
kept
them
in
the
race
Now
you
sit
alone
in
the
quiet
of
the
night
Wondering
why
they
hid
away
from
your
light
But
listen
to
me,
let
the
sorrow
go
You
are
a
giant,
and
your
seeds
will
grow
They
might
be
silent,
but
the
heavens
hear
Every
sacrifice
that
you
held
so
dear
Oh,
the
strength
of
a
mother,
steady
and
true
You
gave
your
all,
and
they
neglected
you
But
God
sees
the
labor,
he
sees
every
tear
Your
reward
is
coming,
have
no
fear
Rise
up
mama,
let
the
spirit
glow
You
are
a
diamond,
let
the
world
know (
Instrumentation
building
with
horns)
Don't
let
them
break
your
spirit
now
You
keep
your
head
high,
don't
you
bow
You
are
the
bedrock,
the
root,
and
the
vine
Your
beauty
is
timeless,
and
you're
going
to
shine
Oh,
the
strength
of
a
mother,
steady
and
true
You
gave
your
all,
and
they
neglected
you
But
God
sees
the
labor,
he
sees
every
tear
Your
reward
is
coming,
have
no
fear
Rise
up
mama,
let
the
spirit
glow
You
are
a
diamond,
let
the
world
know (
Horn
section
crescendo,
fades
to
guitar)
Yeah,
keep
on
shining
You
are
chosen,
mama
No
more
tears,
only
glory (
Ad-lib:
Hallelujah!) (
Ad-lib:
You
are
a
queen!)
Yes,
you
are. (
Ad-lib:
You
are
a
queen!)
Yes,
you
are.
