The Best
A song to say “thank you” to Queen Elizabeth II for all the years of service she gave our country. It’s a simple song but any feedback is always appreciated.
Lyrics are as follows:
You gave your life to our country
You gave us strength when times were tough
70 years of dedication
Served with dignity and love
And although I didn’t know you
The world won’t be the same
Since you went to heaven
On that sad September day
It’s the end of an era
Charles, is our King
A glorious coronation
As a new reign begins
But you’ll never be forgotten
Our longest reigning Queen
All the lives that you’ve touched
Have a clear recurring theme
The way you used to smile
Made people feel at ease
The kindness you portrayed
And your sense of inner peace
So thank you for your service
And the promise that you kept
A life of pure devotion
You really were the best
A really nice song Ann and a fitting tribute. Lovely guitar work on the accompaniment
Spot on Ann. 👍👌
It was a very sad time , and this a fitting tribute Anne , well done to you !
I can imagine a children’s choir singing this.
Well done 👏
A lovely tribute.
Lovely tribute. I like the way it builds. Nice harmonies. Well done.
Well done Anne – a simple, genuine homage to someone who was a constant in our lives for so long.
Queen Elizabeth is so pleased listening to this, I’m sure. It’s really lovely.
Fitting tribute to a much loved monarch. Lovely harmonies on this too.
I’m going to vote this Ann because I can tell you have put a lot of love into it. I will have to up my game on the harmonies to meet what you have done. Enjoyed it. Thank you

Bravo what a great tribute to our beautiful Queen x
What a beautiful dedication.
Beautiful song – loved the way you embodies what I am sure many of us would have wanted to say. I love the melody too.
As @annradcliffe says, there’s an innocence to your lovely song that would suit a youth choir, Anne. Very nicely done. 👏👏
