Ebony

Ebony, you’ve got a spirit so rare

A beautiful soul, always showing you care

You’re thoughtful and kind in the things that you do

Whenever it's heavy, I depend on you

I look at your life and I see my best friend

A sister I'll lean on right up to the end

You give from the heart and you don't hesitate

I just need to tell you before it gets late

Oh, the love you’ve shown is never unnoticed

Every quiet moment, every sacrifice you made

You stepped right in and kept my family in focus

With a beautiful heart that is never gonna fade

Ebony, I see everything you do

And I’m so blessed to have a sister like you

You looked at my daughters and took them right in

Loved them so deeply, where do I begin?

Raising my girls like they were your own

Making sure they never felt alone

You never expected a thing in return

Just gave them the warmth and the room to learn

You poured out your soul without asking a price

And showed them the meaning of a beautiful life

Oh, the love you’ve shown is never unnoticed

Every quiet moment, every sacrifice you made

You stepped right in and kept my family in focus

With a beautiful heart that is never gonna fade

Ebony, I see everything you do

And I’m so blessed to have a sister like you

You don't ever ask for a round of applause

You just love us so hard, without any pause

So dependable, gentle, patient, and true

I just had to stop and sing this for you

I want you to know, I want you to hear

I cherish you more with every new year

‘Cause the love you’ve shown is never unnoticed

Every quiet moment, every sacrifice you made

You stepped right in and kept my family in focus

With a beautiful heart that is never gonna fade

Ebony, I see everything you do

My sister, I am forever grateful for you
