I did not know what lay ahead for me today,
But God guided me each step of the way.
I made up my mind to fight, and not just sit…
I made it.

If I need help to make it, though heavy may be the cross,
I will have the help I need; I will never be at a loss.
Being a loser I am not, I did not quit…
I made it.

When my temptations come, and I am tried,
God was there, His face from me He did not hide.
In this day of need, my life to You I submit…
I made it.

If the river I crossed seems so wide
Jesus says I will be there by your side.
He gave me the strength and the grit…
I made it.

The battle was on every side, the way seemed barred,
I have a reputation to uphold, it must not be marred.
The battle I won, I escaped the snares and the pit…
I made it.

The storm is raging without and within,
Will I make it, is my endurance wearing thin?
I haven’t come this far just to quit?
I made it.

You also might have to face the stormy sea,
Christ says, “Be not afraid, with you I will be”.
You can overcome, this power from God you get…
You made it.

If I live until the rapture takes place,
Each day I was kept by His grace.
So when by His resurrection power I am hit,
Then I can truly say I made it.
