By Your Side: Tenth Avenue North
And I’ll be by your side
Wherever you fall
In the dead of night
Whenever you call
And please don’t fight
These hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you…
Place in This World: Michael Smith
Looking for a reason
Roaming through the night to find
My place in this world
My place in this world
Not a lot to lean on
I need Your light to help me find
My place in this world
My place in this world…
The Power of the Moment: Chris Rice
What am I gonna be when I grow up?
How am I gonna make my mark in history?
And what are they gonna write about me when I’m gone?
These are the questions that shape the way I think about what matters
But I have no guarantee of my next heartbeat
And my world’s too big to make a name for myself
And what if no one wants to read about me when I’m gone?
Seems to me that right now’s the only moment that matters…
Blue Sky: Francesca Battistelli
Don’t you know that I know
Life can be so hard it makes you wanna give up
But don’t you know over the horizon
The sunny day you’re looking for
Is waiting right here in my love…
We’ve Only Just Begun: Run Kid Run
Let’s just get it started tonight
All you’ve ever wanted it’s in your eyes
Just let it take you where you want to go
Just let it tell you what you want to know
You’ve got your destination
Progress has now been made and you
Will see the way you’ve wanted it to be
We’ve only just begun
There’s gold that lies in us
Your hesitation’s held you long enough…
Wait and See: Brandon Health
So now’s my time to be a man, follow my heart as far as I can
No tellin’ where I’m ending up tonight
I never slow down or so it seems, but singing my heart is one of my dreams
All I gotta do is hold on tight..
Lean on Me: Kirk Franklin
I am here
You don’t have to worry
I can see…
I can see your tears
I’ll be there in a hurry when you call
Yes I will
Friends are there to catch you when you fall
Here’s my shoulder
Here’s my shoulder, you can lean on me…
Graduation: Vitamin C
As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
From whatever
We will still be
Friends forever…
Because You Loved Me: Celine Dion
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn’t speak
You were my eyes when I couldn’t see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn’t reach
You gave me faith ‘coz you believed
I’m everything I am
Because you loved me…
Ready: Third Day
I’m ready for the winds to change
I’m ready for a brighter day
I’m ready for the sun to shine down on me
I’m waiting for a song to sing
I’m looking for a brand new thing
I’m ready now to live a life that I believe
I want the world to turn because of love
And mercy to find each of us
Doing what we can to just believe, yeah
I want the world to know that You’re the One
Who fills me up and gives me hope
And brings about this change that’s in me
Oh yeah, I’m ready, yeah
You know I’m ready now…
Breakaway: Kelly Clarkson
I’ll spread my wings and I’ll learn how to fly
I’ll do what it takes ’till I touch the sky
And I’ll make a wish, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won’t forget all the ones that I loved
I’ll take a risk, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway…
Every Season: Nichole Nordeman
Every evening sky, an invitation
To trace the patterned stars
And early in July, a celebration
For freedom that is ours
And I notice You
In children’s games
In those who watch them from the shade
Every drop of sun is full of fun and wonder
You are summer….
Those were some songs that you can play on your graduation day. They range from classics to some contemporary ones, so there’s quite some variety. Good luck and have a great life ahead!
