Make It Through (with Linda Davis) Lyrics - Randy Travis

Randy Travis & Linda Davis 

(Writers: Skip Ewing, Tim Mensy) 

(Randy) 

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 don't 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 there's nothing I can do 

I know if I keep my faith in you 

I'm gonna make it through. 

(Linda) 

I'm a prisoner here in this hall of kings 

I'm gold, I'm jewels, I'm a diamond ring 

To be given as a token of God's affection. 

The law says I'm their property 

But my heart and my soul belong to me 

They can hold me but I'll never be in their possession. 

When I feel my body going down 

And there's nothing I can do 

I know if I keep my faith in you 

I'm gonna make it through.

(Both) 

Through the doubt 

Give me strength to lead them out 

Give them faith to follow me 

Guide us through the sea 

(Randy) 

So help me God I'm a common man 

With the lives of thousands in my hands 

As I carry them into the land you promised. 

(Both) 

And when I feel my body going down 

And there's nothing I can do 

I know if I keep my faith in you 

I'm gonna make it through. 

I know if I keep my faith in you 

We're gonna make it through...
