Make It Through (linda Davis & Randy Travis) Lyrics - Linda Davis

Well the sun beats down and the sand gets hot 

Where I break my back hauling endless rock 

For a man made God 

I really dont believe in 

I shoulder the rope and I bear the strain 

Wipe the salt from my eyes and ignore the pain 

Though I know when I fall 

Another whip is coming 

When I feel my body going down 

And theres nothing I can do 

I know if I keep my faith in you 

Im gonna make it through 

Im a prisoner here in this hall of kings 

Im gold Im jewels Im a diamond ring 

To be given as a token of Gods affection 

The law says Im their property 

But my heart and my soul belong to me 

They can hold me but Ill never be in their possession 

When I feel my body going down 

And theres nothing I can do 

I know if I keep my faith in you 

Im gonna make it through 

Through the doubt 

Give me strength to lead them out 

Give them faith to follow me 

Guide us through the sea 

So help me God Im a common man 

With the lives of thousands in my hands 

As I carry them into the land you promised 

And when I feel my body going down 

And theres nothing I can do 

I know if I keep my faith in you 

Im gonna make it through
