Holdin' On to Yesterday - Pride of Lions

I place my gift upon the altar

The stage is set, I’m feeling strong

This is the best I have to offer

Share with me this gift of song

This is my life and here’s my story

From the beginning to this day

Music became my road to glory

My saving grace along the way

Then on that midnight rise to fortune

I was blinded by the footlights of the stage

Now face to face with my reflection

At last the child has come of age

I place my gift upon the altar

The stage is set, alone I stand

This is the best I have to offer

Say you’ll take me as I am

And I will rise to expectation

Your inspiration keeps me strong

Music’s the best I have to offer

Share with me this gift of song

All of my life I’ve worn disguises

I fooled so many just like you

I thought the world could see right through

Now I stand where every eye can find me

Here I stand before you one and all

With all my faults, I’m only human

But in His eyes I’m ten feet tall

And it all comes down to the message of the sound

It’s working the gift that God has given

Serving the muse by which we’re driven

It’s giving life your best

It’s the privilege with which we’re blessed

Tonight I am your music

I pray I pass the test

I place my gift upon the altar

The stage is set, alone I stand

This is the best I have to offer

Say you’ll take me as I am

Just let me leave you with one melody

The world can sing when I am gone

Music’s the best I have to offer

Share with me this gift of song
