Lyrics
BRIGHT AS THE SUN copyright 2004 Doug Bryan
(CHORUS)
BRIGHT AS THE SUN
YOU ARE THE ONE
WHO MEANS SO MUCH TO ALL OF US
WITH EACH NEW DAY
YOU'LL LINGER ON
WITHIN THE HEARTS OF EVERYONE
BRIGHT AS THE SUN
YOUR TENDER HEART YOUR GUIDING HAND
THAT SMILE WE'VE COME TO KNOW
WE ARE SO BLESSED THAT YOU'VE GRACED OUR DAYS
CHANGING OUR LIVES IN SO MANY WAYS
BRIGHT AS THE SUN...
SO MANY TIMES YOU'VE LIFTED US
INTO THE ARMS OF GOD
IN TIMES OF DARKNESS, DOUBT AND PAIN
YOU POURED ON THE FAITH AGAIN AND AGAIN
BRIGHT AS THE SUN...
(REFRAIN)
THROUGH THE YEARS
THE CHILDREN GROW
PEOPLE COME AND PEOPLE GO
EACH ONE TAKES AWAY WITH THEM
A PIECE OF THE LOVE YOU SHARE MY FRIEND
(BREAKDOWN)
BRIGHT AS THE SUN...
REMEMBER THE TIMES
REEMEMBER THE TEARS
REMEMBER THE JOY
REMEMBER THESE YEARS
AND ALWAYS REMEMBER
YOU ARE....
BRIGHT AS THE SUN
