Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know that He will, I've seen it and He will
God will bring you, bring you out
I know that He will, I've seen it and I know He will
If you just let Him make a way
God will make a way
I know that He will, I've seen it and He will
God will make a way
I know He will, I've seen it and He will
Make a way
God will, yes, He'll make a way
He knows exactly what you've been feeling now
So don't you doubt and don't you give up now
For the God I serve is already working it out
God will bring you out, for He knows the way
I know that He will, He knows a way out of your problems
I've seen it and He will
He knows a way out of your situation
God will, God will, God will bring you out
I know that He will, oh, I've seen it and I know that He will
Make a way
So you see I tried Him, He made a way for me
I understand just what you've been going through
Listen, it is not the time for you to give up now
You've been praying and your miracle is on the way
God will, God will make a way
Won't you let Him?
Yes, He will
I've tried it for myself
I've seen it and He will
I know that, I know that, I know He will
God will, won't you try him?
Make a way, yes He will
I know that He will, I've tried it for myself
I've seen it and He will
Lord will make a way
I know He will, yes He will
Brother James you see I tried it for myself
And I dare you to try the Lord
He'll be your friend, He'll be right beside you
When you're sick and can't get well
When the doctors gives you bad news
But I know that He will
Watch this: Jesus, step right in
He'll be right there, I know He will
Oh yeah, He will

God made a way when I myself did not see a way out of my situation. God showed me Grace when I didn't deserve it,and at my lowest point in life I realized my God had been with me the entire time and I can say that today because I'm still here all because of Grace and Mercy.
