[Chorus:]
I'm going to hold out,
Gonna hold out 'til He comes,
God has just begun to make a way,
Make a way for me.
I'm going to hold out,
Gonna hold out 'til He comes,
God has just begun to make a way, way.
[Verse:]
Storm clouds may rise, strong winds may blow,
But I know the Lord will take me through it all;
(He'll make a way, way).
Storm clouds may rise, strong winds may blow,
But I know the Lord will take me through it all;
(He'll make a way, make a way for me).

He'll make a way, make a way for me.
