I don't know how to give her any kind of criticism without hurting her feelings.

If the problem is just with written lyrics, keep in mind that sometimes something that looks bad on the page isn't nearly as bad when it's incorporated in with the music. Otherwise just try to hone in on the 2-3 worst lines and just tell her "these need work, YOU can do better" most people can take criticism if it's phrased in a way that makes it clear you're not criticizing them, but pointing out something that is sub-par for their skill level.
