Lyrics
As I Stand Before You
Lyrics by Bo Parker
(Inspirational written for Graduation/Finalist)
[Verse 1]
The time has come when I must venture
Explore the world as I behold it
It’s time for me to see this life
Through the eyes of the one you’ve molded
[Tag]
A time for jubilation
A time for new relations
[Chorus]
As I stand before you
So faith-ful
So proud & true… I’ll make it through
As I stand before you
So con-fident…
With life a new… There’s nothing I can’t do
[progression]
All that you have instilled in me
I will take on my journey too
And I will ride across the clouds of doubt
To reach the dreams that I pursue…
…As I stand be-fore… you…
[Verse 2]
Yes life comes with much heartache
Much pain to grin and bear
Yet I know that each day will bring
A little comfort from somewhere
[Tag]
Now and then relief
Now and then some peace
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I’ll walk the desert mile
I’ll swim the ocean wide
I’ll climb the mountain high
I’ll push my fears aside… [hold note]
[Chorus-octave higher]
[Tag]
Rest assured you’ve done your best
It’s up to me to do the rest
As I stand be-fore… you…
