Linda Davis - Make It Through

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

I know if I keep my faith in you
Were gonna make it through
