~For Parents and the Senior Graduating Classes~

For The Parents

For eighteen years you?re in my life
It?s eighteen years to laugh and cry
Reading stories at your bedtime
These eighteen years of precious times.

Tomorrow you will lift your wings
To fly toward new beginnings
Tomorrow you will lift your wings
Taking with you the love?s lasting.

You are my heart my soul
But I must let you go searching
To see what is in store
The destiny is yours
In the hand of our Lord

If you will take chances
Willing to climb against the winds
You will see from above
A home within our globe
A place you know there?s love.

I?m happy you want to see
What our world has for you and me
I?m proud of all you?ve achieved
I?m proud (that) you belong to me

Take precious memories
And all the love from me with you
Where you will rest your wings
I hope you?ll always think
My love has no ending.

For The Graduates

For eighteen years you?re in my life
It?s eighteen years to laugh and cry
Reading stories at my bedtime
These eighteen years of precious life.

Soon I will start lifting my wings
I will begin my first searching
Soon I will start lifting my wings
Taking with me the love?s lasting.

You are my heart my soul
But I must try to go searching
To see what is in store
I know no love like yours
I?ll keep trust in our Lord.

I?ll be taking my chance
Ready to climb against the winds
If I?m lifted high above
I?ll never fail to know
In me filled with your love.

I?m looking forward to see
What this world has for you and me
I?m happy you?re proud of me
I?m happy you belong to me.

Take precious memories
And keep them all with me forever
Where I will rest my wings
I know I?ll always think
Your love has no ending.
