I graduated


We've watched you as you’ve grown
From our precious little girl
To become a woman of beauty,
Ready to face the world
We stand in awe as you graduate
With what God’s done in your life
And we pray that you will go from here
With your hope and trust in Christ.


On this day that you graduate,
We want you to know, dear son,
How very proud we are of you,
In the person you’ve become
Especially for your faith in God
And what He’s done in your life
We pray that you will go from here
With the Lord as your guide.

As you graduate today,
I pray that you will know,
How very proud I am of you
Though it may not always show
I thank the Lord every day
For all He’s done in you
And through the years that lie ahead,
Know God walks there too.

I thank the Lord every day
For who you have become
And for all that He will do in you,
In the future years to come
So may you know His blessings
As you graduate today
And place your future in God’s hands
So you’ll never go astray.
We want to help you celebrate
Your very special day,
This moment you’ve been waiting for
Has finally come your way
We give all glory to the Lord
For bringing you to this place
And now that you have graduated,
Go forth and take God’s grace.

Let us now share in your joy
As together, we celebrate
What God has done in your life,
Today, as you graduate
We pray that you will go on to
What God has already planned,
For you have such an awesome future
When you place it in God’s hands.


God has brought you this far
To take you further still,
Into a future full of promise
As you focus on His will
And as you press on in Him,
Remember, His plan for you,
For this is your life’s purpose
And the work He’s called you to.

I just want to congratulate you
As you graduate today,
It’s a treasured moment in your life,
No one can take away
May you know God’s hand upon you
As you go forth from this place,
Into a future of expectation,
With an abundance of God’s grace.
