This song was written to encourage you
Those of you that are really going through
Your mind might be filled with doubt
Your life may have been scarred
But you can make it with the Lord
(For I know you can make it with the Lord)
My hope is built on nothing less
Than the blood of Jesus and His righteousness
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
You can make it in my Savior's name
(For I know you can make it with the Lord)
Be encouraged, don't be discouraged
Help is truly, truly on the way
If you can take it, you can make it
(You can make it with the Lord)
For I know you can make it with the Lord
They say there's a recession in the land
(Unemployment's on the rise)
There is crime on every hand
Find a solution, it's really not hard
The answer today, I found it in the Lord
(For I know you can make it with the Lord)
You can make it
You can make it
You can make it
Make it with the Lord
You can make it
You can make it
You can make it
Make it with the Lord
You can make it
You can make it
You can make it
Make it with the Lord, oh yeah
Yes, you can
Yes, you can
Yes, you can
You can make it
You can make it
You can make it
Make it with the Lord, oh yeah
