Looking in the mirror, I see the grace
A patient heart and a loving face
Walking in the light of the Lord I trust
A Christian soul, letting love be the compass
I’ve given my care, I've been thoughtful and true
Showing up for the church and the family too
Now I take a breath and I look at my life
Through all the seasons, the joy and the light
ChorusOh, I celebrate me, DeBorah standing tall
Through the grace of God, I can see it all
I look at the journey, the love that I bring
And finally, I understand everything
Yeah, I celebrate me, my spirit is free
I’m exactly who I was made to be
Verse 2Thinking back to the days when the story begun
Meeting BJ back in nineteen seventy-one
A loyal friend with a hand to hold
Watching all these beautiful memories unfold
Surrounded by the people who know me the best
With my friends and my family, I am truly blessed
I poured out my love, let my kindness extend
Now I'm learning to be my own loyal friend
ChorusOh, I celebrate me, DeBorah standing tall
Through the grace of God, I can see it all
I look at the journey, the love that I bring
And finally, I understand everything
Yeah, I celebrate me, my spirit is free
I’m exactly who I was made to be
BridgeEvery prayer in the pews, every tear that I dried
With heaven above me as my ultimate guide
I'm patient, I'm caring, my foundation is deep
These are the promises I'm going to keep
To honor my story, to honor my name
The fire inside me is a beautiful flame
Final ChorusSo I celebrate me, DeBorah standing tall
Through the grace of God, I can see it all
I look at the journey, the love that I bring
And finally, I understand everything
Yeah, I celebrate me, my spirit is free
I’m exactly who I was made to be
Oh, I understand everything, and I celebrate me.
