So Proud by Brian Courtney Wilson




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 hope 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 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

And now I am a man
I finally understand
How to bow down and still stay proud

We may have no finest things
But what we have is enough
There are so many reasons to keep believing
That we 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 have no finest things
But what we have is enough
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 doing our best
Expecting nothing less

Because we will always be
So proud
So proud
So proud
So proud
So proud

  1. So proud gave me the inspiration to make my mother happy. My siblings have not done it yet so i am going to be the first one to do so.....I love this song. It makes me think about all the things that i have been throuhg and to know that i am cared for by god, my aunt, my grandmother and everybody else just makes me start to shout and thank god for ll that he has done for me..... because when i thnk of the goodness of jesus and all that he has done for me.... hey... my soul cries out hallelujah; i thank god for saving me... i could have been pushed to the side and not thought about but i was thought of by god...if it had not been for the lord who was on my side tell me where would i be?
