This is a private posting for the Dickman family of a song they commissioned for the "Queen of their hearts," Char.

Lyrics

Queen of Our Hearts

A girl from a farm, with talent and charm
A beautiful smile, sewing with style
Making things lovely, making things bright
Growing up strong, and growing up right

With Holly and Judy, Kristy and Nancy
Down to earth girls, but Char loved the fancy
And then as a Mother, so wonderfully
As gentle or tough as she needed to be

She’s the Queen of Our Hearts
She’s made loving into an art
Brings beauty and grace, everyplace that she goes,
It’s time that she knows… she’s the
Queen of Our Hearts

Nothing ever seems to make her frown
Except when she’s down in the basement, hanging upside down
And hospital floors should probably have grooves
‘Cause if Char is coming down that hallway, you’d better move

CHORUS

When the world presents a rocky path
She says, you can cry or laugh, I choose to laugh
And if her bright side sometimes feels a little bright to handle
It’s good to know when it gets darkest, she’ll still have a candle

CHORUS

With the losses that came, she’s always held to her faith
And shown how strong a woman can be
And how to love best you can, even a difficult hand
Cause loving is the way we’re meant to be

Now color fills her days and dreams
And anything is possible nowadays it seems
She’s made the world more beautiful everywhere she goes
Made the world a warmer place for everyone she knows

CHORUS
