Make It Happen

Not more than three short years ago
 I was abandoned and alone
 Without 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
 If you believe in yourself enough
 And know what you want
 You're gonna make it happen
 Make it happen
 And if you get down on your knees at night
 And pray to the Lord
 He's gonna make it happen
 Make it happen
 You're gonna make it happen, oh, yeah
 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
 If you believe in yourself enough
 And know what you want
 You're gonna make it happen
 Make it happen
 You're gonna make it happen
 And if you get down on your knees at night
 And pray to the Lord
 He's gonna make it happen
 Make it happen
 If you believe in yourself enough
 And know what you want
 You're gonna make it happen
 Make it happen, make it happen
 And if you get down on your knees at night
 And pray to the Lord
 He's gonna make it happen
 Make it happen
 Make it happen, yes
 Make it
 You're gonna make it
 Make it
 Oh, make it
 Oh-oh, oh, make it through the night
 I held on to my faith
 I struggled and I prayed
 And finally found a way
 If you believe in yourself enough
 And know what you want
 You're gonna make it happen
 Make it happen
 And if you get down on your knees at night
 And pray to the Lord
 He's gonna make it happen
 Make it happen, yes, he is
 If you believe in yourself enough
 And know what you want
 You're gonna make it happen
 Make it happen
 And if you get down on your knees at night
 And pray to the Lord
 He's gonna make it happen
 Make it happen
 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
 Yeah, you can make it
 Make it happen
 Gonna make it, you're gonna make it
 You're gonna make it
 If you believe in yourself enough
 And know what you want
 You're gonna make it happen
 Make it happen
 And if you get down on your knees at night
 And pray to the Lord
 He's gonna make it happen
 Make it happen
 If you believe in yourself enough
 And know what you want
 You're gonna make it happen
 Make it happen
 And if you get down on your knees at night
 And pray to the Lord
 He's gonna make it happen
 Make it happen
