Lyrics I Made It This Far - Candi Staton

I MADE IT THIS FAR

When I got up out of my bed this morning
I put my feet on the floor
I walked across the room to my dressing table
As I looked down at the floor.

I can still see myself in the mirror
As I felt God's grace and love
I lifted my hands and began to praise Him
I made it this far.

Then I walked over to my window
I looked at the sun shining from the sky
I began to think about where He brought me from
And it brought tears to my eyes.

You see He was right there, but I lost it all
Sometimes, I can still, I can still feel the pain
But He lifted my burden and took away the stain
He gave me strength to start all over again.

That is why you see, I made it this far (made it this far) (3)
I had mountains to move, Hills to climb
Tears to dry from my weeping eyes.

You see, I have had burdens to bear, Heartaches and pain
But you wrapped me up in Your love, every time I called Your name.
I want to say thank you Jesus (thank you, thank you),
I made it this far, (made it this far), it hadn't been easy.

You see, I made it this far, How many can say, I made it this far,
I made it thus far, made it this far
I had mountains to move, Hills to climb
Tears to dry from my weeping eyes.

I have had burdens to bear
I even had heartaches and pain
But you wrapped me up in Your love
Every time I called Your name.

I just want to say thank (thank you) Thank you Jesus, (thank you),
I made it this far, (made it this far).
