Make a Way Lyrics

She was only seventeen
Wild at heart and following her dreams
But even she was pretty, got a ticket to the city
Where she'd find her place on the cover of a magazine

It was only a chat room but it would lead the way
To the door of a man where she'd throw it all away
He said they'd take it slow but little did she know
She'd be all used up by the end of the day

But she was strong, she would survive
Ambition would be her drive, and she cried

I'll make a way, I'll do whatever it takes
Even though it won't be easy
I have a plan and though I may not understand
Someday I'll make a way
Hear me say, someday I'll make a way

Where did she go wrong and how did she get here?
Living hard and looking older than her years
Miss Little Bigtown, trying to hold a job down
Just doing what she could to choke her fears

But she was strong, she would survive
A spark of hope that kept her dreams alive

I'll make a way, I'll do whatever it takes
Even though it won't be easy
I have a plan and though I may not understand
Someday I'll make a way

Walking down the road
In the city where she'd come with so much hope
You see her vision had long died along with all her pride
When she found herself at the end of her road

But she heard angels through the door
Of a church she'd passed a million times before
Inside the choir song was ringing
Since she'd found herself believing
That out there maybe there was something more

And so she bowed her head to pray
She cried Jesus, please make a way
And she heard Him say

I'll make a way, I'll do whatever it takes
Even though it won't be easy
I have a plan and though you may not understand
Today I'll make a way
Hear Him say today, He'll make a way

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Today He'll make a way
For you He's gonna make a way
For you He'll make a way
