They made a way for me
Rosa Parks and Dr. King
Countless people fighting against segregation
Countless people dying for my generation
Beaten to death
Hanging from trees
Sitting in a white classrooms
With security
Thank you Lord, they made a way for me

They made a way for me
Kevin and Tracey
Raising me up
To be the best I can be
Pushing me towards
My destiny
Spending every dime
To educate me
Thank you Lord, they made a way for me.


He made a way for me
Jesus Christ the Almighty king
Whipped with leather
Betrayed for money
His life the ultimate sacrifice
For love
and eternal life
For a way to the king of kings
Thank you Lord Jesus, You made a way for me!
