about

"I Made It" is a personal testimony about going through the struggles of life, almost giving up - but persevering and making it through the storm victorious.

lyrics

I MADE IT
Written by: Phillip O’Rourke (ASCAP)

Verse 1
Darkness ruled the day. I stumbled. I lost my way.
But I am here to say that I made it.
All hope was in the past. My dreams were fading fast.
I never thought I’d last but I made it.
Not strong enough to fight. I almost lost my life.
But darkness yields to light and I made it.
My soul was weakening. I had no peace within.
But that was not the end, ‘cause I made it.

Pre-Hook
I made it through the storm and the rain
Through the tears, the hurt, the years of pain
And now I have no choice but to share my life and all it’s faults
Because without His grace I wouldn’t be here at all.

Verse 2
So low I could not stand. I hated who I am
But my life - it had a plan, and I made it.
I was sinking to rise no more. Far from the peaceful shore.
But there was an open door and I made it.

Pre-Hook

Hook
I made it. I made it. I made it. I made it.
I made it. I made it. Oh oh oh oh
I made it. I made it. I made it. I made it.
I made it. I made it. Oh oh oh oh
I made it through the storm (I made it)
Through the rain (I made it)
Past the tears (I made it)
Past the pain (I made it)
I made it. I made it. Oh oh oh oh
Yes, I lived (I made it)
I didn’t die (I made it)
I’m still here (I made it)
I’m alive (I made it)
I made it. I made it. Oh oh oh oh
(Oh’s) I made it
