#MorningWorship - You Can Make It

Each morning, I start off my day by listening to my personally curated "Morning Worship" playlist on my phone. It's a playlist with days' worth of gospel and worship music that I have grown up with and listened to for over 30 years.

I want to share with you a song each morning that I listened to that day that inspired me and reminded me of God's goodness, love and mission for us on Earth.

Today's song: "You Can Make It" by Will Smith feat. Fridayy and Sunday Service Choir

(lyrics below the video)

Don't give up on me, I need you to hold on

Know you're deep up in the storm

But I know you can face it (Face it), ayy

It can get dark on the road and you're feeling all alone

Don't lose sight of where you're going

'Cause I know you can make it (Can make it), oh, woah

Yeah, I know you can make it, ooh

I know you can make it, yeah

You are in the smoke and the fire

Tight rope on the wire

I see you're broken and tired

And all your hope is expired

You're just done with the change and the games and the shame

And the world is insane, all the pain from the flames

That you walk through, but no one to talk to

The ghost that'll haunt you and thoughts that'll taunt you

Tryna heal, but the battle's uphill

And if God is for real you just wonder if He'll listen

So many tests for the flesh

Exhausted, gasping to catch your breath

Walking through the valley of the shadow of death

And when you think you've got nothing left, keep going

Don't give up on me, I need you to hold on

Know you're deep up in the storm

But I know you can face it (Face it), ayy

It can get dark on the road and you're feeling all alone

Don't lose sight of where you're going

‘Cause I know you can make it, oh, woah

Yeah, I know you can make it (You can make it), ooh

I know you can make it, yeah

I know you can face it (You can face it), ooh

Oh, I know you can make it, yeah

The darker the hell you gotta endure

The brighter the heaven you get to enjoy

The harder the fall, the higher you soar

God opens a window when the devil closes the door

Believe me, they tried to bleed Will Smith

In the rearview, I see adversity was the gift

To lift me higher gifts requires faith

So dry your eyes and then you'll find the way

Out of the madness, out of the maze (Oh)

And out of the saddest into the rays (Oh)

The darkest of nights turns into day

And every storm runs out of rain, hold on

Don't give up on me, I need you to hold on

I know you can face it

Oh, oh, oh

I know you can make it

I know you can make it (you can make it)

I know you can make it

I know you can face it (You can make it), ooh

I know you can make it, ayy

Nobody gets an easy ride

We all have a cross to bear

But there's wisdom in the fire

And every moment is an opportunity

Embrace the journey
