Ethel, Light the Room
Style: Swing big band

[Verse 1]
Slush is sliding down the glass
Outside the shop the cold winds pass
But you walk in with all that warmth
Nothing dreary ever lasts

[Pre-chorus]
You've got a way of turning grey to gold
You make the coldest morning feel less cold
Tonight we're raising every glass to you

[Chorus]
Ethel, you're a rare kind of special
Nothing here feels ordinary or level
Every year you make the room a Bethel
Ethel, tonight we sing for you, Ethel

[Verse 2]
You never needed the sun to shine
You brought your own kind of warm inside
We could freeze out on that street
But you'd still make it feel fine

[Chorus]
Ethel, you're a rare kind of special
Nothing here feels ordinary or level
Every year you make the room a Bethel
Ethel, tonight we sing for you, Ethel

[Bridge]
Here's to every year you've grown
Here's to all the light you've thrown
Not one candle burns as steady
You were always more than ready

[Chorus]
Ethel, you're a rare kind of special
Nothing here feels ordinary or level
Every year you make the room a Bethel
Ethel, tonight we sing for you, Ethel

[Outro]
Let the slush keep sliding down the glass
We've got all the warmth we'll ever need
