A life well lived. I admired her for the fact that she always saw herself in service to the people, not above them.
In tribute/support of our UK brothers and sisters we made "God Save The Queen" the final song of the service at church today. There were quite a few wet eyes at the end......
Rest In Peace, Your Majesty.
God save our gracious Queen,
Long live our noble Queen,
God save the Queen!
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us,
God save the Queen!
O Lord our God arise,
Scatter our* enemies,
And make them fall!
Confound their politics,
Frustrate their knavish tricks,
On Thee our hopes we fix,
God save us all!
Not in this land alone,
But be God's mercies known,
From shore to shore!
Lord make the nations see,
That men should brothers be,
And form one family,
The wide world ov'er
Queen Elizabeth II

Queen Elizabeth II was a gracious lady who put service before self. She indeed lived a most amazing life, seen world leaders come and go, and worked everyday of it until the end.
May she rest in peace.
