ELIZABETH'S SONG

(Verse 1)
Born in the dawn of eighteen-twenty’s light,
In Steuben’s fields, under stars so bright,
Elizabeth Putman, with courage untold,
Fourth child of a family, brave and bold.
Through New York’s valleys, her young heart grew,
In a bustling home where love shone through.
The 1830s called, a journey to roam,
To Norfolk’s wilds, she’d build a home.

(Verse 2)
At twenty she wed her Alexander dear,
In forty’s spring, with dreams so clear.
A Baptist bond in Windham’s embrace,
They carved a life in that rugged place.
Farmer and innkeeper, hand in hand,
Together they tilled the northern land.
With every sunrise, their hopes would rise,
Her strength reflected in her children’s eyes.

(Chorus)
Oh, Elizabeth, with a heart so strong,
Carried faith and love through a life so long.
Through joy and sorrow, you stood like a flame,
A pioneer woman, we sing your name.

(Verse 3)
Fourteen children, her heart’s great call,
Some rose to thrive, some destined to fall.
Mary Jane bloomed, then faded away,
Six tender souls lost to yesterday.
Yet through the grief, her spirit held fast,
With faith as her anchor, her pain surpassed.
Gertrude and Sarah, her legacy grew,
Wilbert, her last, when her years were few.

(Chorus)
Oh, Elizabeth, with a heart so strong,
Carried faith and love through a life so long.
Through joy and sorrow, you stood like a flame,
A pioneer woman, we sing your name.

(Verse 4)
Census pages trace her steadfast years,
Through farming days and silent tears.
Brother Peter joined their humble door,
Kinship’s warmth in a world so poor.
At seventy-five, in Delhi’s embrace,
She found her rest in a sacred place.
Her grandchildren spread, her story they’d tell,
Of a woman who loved through heaven and hell.

(Bridge)
From Monroe’s time to Victoria’s reign,
She faced the wilderness, the joy, the pain.
A life of courage, through decades sown,
Her legacy lives where her heart was known.

Chorus
Oh, Elizabeth, with a heart so strong,
Carried faith and love through a life so long.
Through joy and sorrow, you stood like a flame,
A pioneer woman, we sing your name.

(Outro)
In Norfolk’s fields, your spirit remains,
In the whisper of winds, in the soft spring rains.
Elizabeth Sovereen, your light won’t fade,
A pioneer’s heart, in eternity laid.
