Good Graduation Songs
By Catherine Pulsifer
Our friend, Kelly, is graduating next month. She was helping the committee pick out the songs that were to be played at the graduation ceremony. During the commencement exercises, they are going to play 3 songs. She had a list of songs with the lyrics that she was trying to choose from. She was looking for a song that symbolized the finishing of a chapter in their lives, but also lyrics that reflected a new beginning.
As I read the lyrics of each song, the wisdom of their words jumped out at me. The words in these songs are ones that not only are good graduation songs, but their words can apply to us all in our journey of life. So, whether you are looking for songs to play at a graduation or if you just want some inspiration, read some of the lyrics from these songs to provide a positive thought to your day. If you find a song that intrigues you, you can find the complete lyrics by doing a search using the song title.
When I'm Strong by David and Jenny Heitler-Klevans
I feel good - when I'm strong
I don't have to follow, or just go along.
I feel good - when I'm strong
When I decide for myself, what's right and what's wrong.We Can Move the World by Joe Crone
We can move the world, we can touch the sky
We can climb the highest mountains, spread our wings and fly
We can learn to be what it is we're meant to be
We can learn to grab our dreams and look for all possibilities
We can move the worldTime of Your Life by Green Day
Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in timeI Believe I Can Fly by R. Kelly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly awayYou Raise Me Up by Josh Groban
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.What A Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong
I see trees of green........ red roses too
I see em bloom..... for me and for you
And I think to myself.... what a wonderful world.I Hope You Dance by Lee Ann Womack
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances
But they're worth takingForever Young by Rod Stewart
May the good lord be with you
Down every road you roam
And may sunshine and happiness

Making your way in the world today
Takes everything you've got;
Taking a break from all your worries
Sure would help a lot.The Worlds Greatest by R. Kelly

I'm that mountain deep up high.
Hey you made it
I'm the worlds greatest
