Lyrics Candi Staton – I Made It This Far

When I got up out of my bed this morning
I put my feet on the floor
I walked across the room to my dressing table
As I looked down at the floor

I can still see myself in the mirror
As I felt God’s grace and love
I lifted my hands and began to praise Him
I made it this far

Then I walked over to my window
I looked at the sun shining from the sky
I began to think about where He brought me from
And it brought tears to my eyes

You see He was right there, but I lost it all
Sometimes, I can still, I can still feel the pain
But He lifted my burden and took away the stain
He gave me strength to start all over again

That is why you see, I made it this far (made it this far)
I made it this far (I made it this far…)
I had mountains to move, hills to climb
Tears to dry from my weeping eyes

You see, I have had burdens to bear, Heartaches and pain
But you wrapped me up in Your love, every time I called Your name
I want to say thank you Jesus (thank you, thank you)
I made it this far (I made it this far), it hadn’t been easy

You see, I made it this far
How many can say, I made it this far
I made it this far (I made it this far…)
I had mountains to move, hills to climb
Tears to dry from my weeping eyes

I have had burdens to bear
