He'll Make A Way

Sam Cooke · Complete Recordings Of Sam Cooke With The Soul Stirrers [2002]

I know the Lord will make a way for me

I know that my lord will from trouble, someday set me free

That's why I never will give up the fight

But I trust in Him to do whatever is right



For, oh, the Lord

He told me He would always make a way

Make a way, He'll make a way



For I am trusting in Your word

And my weakness make me strong

But I never will go wrong



No, if you leave me I'll be home

Someday, the Lord will make a way, I know You will



Whenever I'm in trouble, for I'm still trusting in your word

And my weakness makes me strong

But I never will go wrong



No, if you leave me I'll be home

Someday, the Lord will make a way, I know you will

He'll make a way for me
