| 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
