Title: Make It Happen

Not more than three short years ago
I was abandoned and alone
With not a penny to my name
So very young and so afraid
No proper shoes upon my feet
Sometimes, I couldn't even eat
I often cried myself to sleep

But, still, I had to keep on going
Never knowing
If I could take it
If I would make it through the night
I held on to my faith
I struggled and I prayed
And, now, I've found my way

(Chorus:)
If you believe in yourself enough
And know what you want
You're gonna make it happen
Make it happen
And, if you get on your knees at night
And pray to the Lord
He's gonna make it happen
Make it happen

I know life can be so tough
And you feel like giving up
But you must be strong
Baby, just hold on
You'll never find the answers
If you throw your life away
I used to feel the way you do

Still, I had to keep on going
Never knowing
If I could take it
If I would make it through the night
I held on to my faith
I struggled and I prayed
And, now, I've finally found my way

(Repeat chorus)

(Bridge:)
I once was lost; but, now, I'm found
I got my feet on solid ground
Thank You, Lord
If you believe within your soul
Just hold on tight and don't let go
You can make it
(Make it happen)

You're gonna make it happen
Gonna make it
Gonna make it
Gonna make it

(Repeat chorus 3x)
