Oh When there is no way You're gonna make a way We've seen You do it before We know You're gonna do it again, yeah

You will make a way You always make a way You will make a way You always make a way You will make a way You always make a way You will make a way You always make a way
Oh, You're doing it, You're doing it We've seen You do it before You're gonna do it again Do it again You're still making ways
'Cause nothing's too hard for You Impossible's what You do And I know You've got this too Impossible's what You do, aye

You will make a way What the enemy meant for bad, He'll turn for good And You'll just make another way Still making ways What the enemy meant for evil, He'll turn it for good And You'll just make another way Still making ways
Your sickness is for His glory That trial is for His glory He's still making ways Still making ways
It's not something we just read about, but He's still making ways It's not just something we've heard about, but He's still making ways It's not just something I've heard preached about, but He's still making ways We've seen it in our lives
Still making ways, oh Come on. if you have a testimony you should testify Still making ways Come on. if you've seen Him move mountains you should testify Still making ways If you've seen Him open up door, testify Still making ways
Oh, He's still making ways Still making ways We've seen Him heal bodies, He's still making ways I've seen Him open up doors, He's still making ways He's still making ways Still making ways
So the next time you see a mountain You should just see another way (Another way) The next time you see sickness or disease I want you to see there's another way (Another way)
And He will make a way He'll always make a way Sing it from experience He will make a way Always make a way You will make a way You always make a way You've seen it over and over You will make a way You've seen it over and over You always make a way

Meaning & Inspiration
Released as part of Elevation Worship's 2023 album, *CAN YOU IMAGINE?*, "Make A Way" stands as a powerful anthem of unwavering faith in the face of insurmountable odds. The song's core message resonates with the profound assurance that God's power transcends human limitations, a theme deeply rooted in biblical narrative. It speaks to the human experience of encountering situations where no earthly solution seems possible, yet finding solace and strength in the belief that God will, indeed, create a path. This sentiment echoes the experience of the Israelites at the Red Sea, where Moses declared, "Stand firm, the Lord will fight for you, while you yourselves are utterly silent" (Exodus 14:14). The lyrics articulate this foundational trust, asserting that God’s promises, as written in Scripture, are immutable, and His word holds the ultimate authority, irrespective of external circumstances.
The strength of "Make A Way" lies in its direct and declarative proclamation of God's sovereignty. The repeated assurance, "You will make a way, You always make a way," is not merely a hopeful wish but a conviction born from observing God's faithfulness throughout history and personal experience. This perspective is directly mirrored in passages like Isaiah 43:19, which promises, "See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert." The song’s narrative moves from acknowledging the difficulty—the presence of a "mountain" or an "impossible"—to fixing one's gaze upon God, recognizing His inherent nature as the creator of solutions. This act of spiritual redirection is crucial, as Jesus Himself taught in Matthew 19:26, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." The lyrical progression from doubt or struggle to confident expectation underscores a spiritual discipline of shifting focus from the problem to the Provider.
Furthermore, the song powerfully conveys that God's actions are not just about overcoming obstacles but about bringing about His glory. Lines like "Your sickness is for His glory... He's still making ways" and "What the enemy meant for bad, He'll turn for good" directly draw from theological concepts of redemption and divine sovereignty over evil. This echoes the story of Joseph, who, after enduring immense hardship and betrayal, told his brothers, "You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives" (Genesis 50:20). This transformative power of God, turning perceived setbacks into opportunities for His purposes, is the central theme that elevates "Make A Way" beyond a simple song of hope to a declaration of spiritual victory. The call to "testify" at the end of the song is an invitation to believers to share their own experiences of God making a way, reinforcing the communal aspect of faith and the power of shared testimony in building collective belief. Ultimately, "Make A Way" serves as a potent reminder that even when all human avenues are closed, God’s faithfulness and power remain absolute, always capable of forging a path.
