Oh...
It's a journey you must travel
Where He leads you, He'll help you to be strong
He has taught you and now He's brought you
To a place where He wants you to move on
Here you stand at the beginning and not the end
Here you stand, and with our blessing we will send you
And though it's hard, we will extend to you a smile
We will cherish all these memories
And we'll always hold a place for you inside
The Lord has planned it, we understand it
Still, we find it hard to say the word, "goodbye"
Here you stand at the beginning and not the end
Here you stand, and with our blessing we will send you
And though it's hard, we will extend to you a smile
Your time here is over, another day is done
But we know that you've just begun
'Cause here you stand at the beginning and not the end
Oh, here you stand, and with our blessing we will send you
And though it's hard, we will extend to you a smile
It's a journey you must travel
You know we'll miss you, don't stay away too long
