Tilly Aston knew
As the years rolled by
There was more to life
More than meets the eye.
Gave her life to help
All who couldn't see
Showed them what their lives
What their lives could be.
Memories of the past
Country, childhood days
Beacons in the dark
Guiding her always.
Things no longer seen
Coming into view
Good things in her soul
Tilly Aston knew.
Inspiring all
As she past their way
Giving hope
By taking fear away.
Sound the bell for this lady dear
Sound the bell
So others also hear …
That Tilly Aston knew
As the years rolled by
There was more to life
More than meets the eye.
Gave her life to help
All who couldn't see
Showed them what their lives
What their lives could be.
Yes, Tilly Aston knew
As the years rolled by
There was more to life
More than meets the eye.
