Esthers Courage

[Intro] [Verse 1] In a kingdom of gold, where the laws were unkind, A queen lost her crown, and the stars realigned. From the shadows she rose, a girl veiled in grace, Esther’s secret her b***d, yet she stood in that place. [Chorus] Oh, Esther, Esther, courage wrapped in lace, You risked every breath to plead for your race. A crown on your brow, but a prayer in your soul, You turned the tide when the dice lost control. [Verse 2] Haman’s wrath burned like fire, his decree sealed with lies, But Mordecai’s tears echoed under Persian skies. “Who knows if you’re here for a time such as this?” Three days without water, she clenched her fists. [Chorus] Oh, Esther, Esther, courage wrapped in lace, You stepped through the fear to stand in death’s face. A feast for the king, but the truth cut the air, “Let my people go free from the snare.” [Bridge] The scepter stretched golden, her voice trembling strong, “If I perish, I perish—this justice is wrong.” The gallows held darkness, but light broke the chain, And the Jews sang her name through the Pourim refrain. [Outro] [Verse 3] From Susa’s high halls to the scrolls we retell, Her bravery carved where the wicked ones fell. A queen not by chance, but by heaven’s own hand, Esther’s story lives on in the Promised Land. [Chorus] Oh, Esther, Esther, courage wrapped in lace, Your legacy lingers in mercy and grace. The dice lost their power, the tables were turned, And the fire of her faith still burns, burns, burns. [Outro]
