I remember church one sunday morning I remember everyone that was there I
got up to sing my song and the first note came out wrong But You still
shouted 'Cause You were so proud
I remember sharing my hopes and my plans And there were some people who
didn't understand But you put your faith in my dream Betting all you had on
me You never doubted 'Cause you were so proud
We never had all the finest things But what we had was enough There were so
many reasons to keep believing That we should be so proud
Now I remember hearing you leave before dawn Then coming home when the
street lights came on Staying up late at night Trying to pay the bills it
was tight But you kept on cause you were so proud
Ooh I remember watching you read your bible and then crying sometimes when
you prayed And now I am a man I finally understand How to bow down and
still stay proud
We may have not have all the finest things But what we have is enough There
are so many reasons to keep believing That we (yeah) should be so proud
Even on our bad days When we make some mistakes And we feel like giving up
I stop to remember all the people Who never gave up on me They were to
proud And wanted me to see that We may not have all the finest things But
what we have is enough (yes) There are so many reasons to keep believing
and working and watching how God makes a way And then living and laughing
and loving everyday And then doing our best expecting nothing less
Because we will always be So proud So proud So proud So proud So proud
