"Gather around, little ones.
Let me tell you about a girl named Abby."
"Is she the one who shines so bright,
Miss Abby?"
"That is her.
Listen close."
She walks with grace,
a fire in her eyes
(tell the story)
Underneath the heavy Southern skies
Every step she takes,
she breaks the mold Abby's story never has been told
"Oh my gosh, did you see Abby's outfit today?"
"I know, right? She is literally glowing.
Everyone is looking at her!"
Abby, rise up, let your light shine on
(shine on) They can try to doubt but they are gone
Abby, stand tall, let the world hear your name
(hear it now) Nothing ever going to be the same
She built her road out of the rough stone
(by her own hand)
Never let them say she is alone
Now she commands the room when she arrives
Changing all the rhythm of our lives
"Wait, is that Abby over there?"
"Yes! She just carries herself so differently."
"Honestly,
she is the main character."
Abby, rise up, let your light shine on
(shine on) They can try to doubt but they are gone
Abby, stand tall, let the world hear your name (hear it now)
Nothing ever going to be the same
"And that is why we remember her name." "Abby!
Abby!" "That's right. Keep shining,
Abby." (ooh, yeah)
