Jermaine Edwards - Make A Way Lyrics
Lyrics
Some days high end, some days low
But I will not give up, no I won't let go
I know God will make a way for me
I see troubles on the left, troubles on the right
Trusting in You God I know I will be alright
I know God will make a way for me
You are God of the valley
The mountains and the sea
I will not worry
You will make a way for me
The God of the valley, the mountain and the sea
I will not worry, You will make a way for me
I will call almighty to provide a way for me
You will stand I will believe
So when my eyes can't see deep down I believe
If You can part the mountains
You can drop a ? for me
You will make a way for me
Father You have never once failed me
Kept my family You will fight for me
You are Jehovah Nissi
You will never let your man to fail
I know You will take good care of me
The God of the valley, the mountain and the sea
I will not worry, You will make a way for me
I will call almighty to provide a way for me
You will stand I will believe
Anything thing He answers will prosper
Anywhere You plan Lord there I will go
You are God of the valley, the mountain and the sea
I will not worry, You will make a way for me
I will call almighty to provide a way for me
You will stand I will believe

Jermaine Edwards - Make A Way
Meaning & Inspiration
Jermaine Edwards dropped his single "Make a Way" on March 18, 2021, and it hits with the kind of raw honesty we need when life feels heavy. We all have those moments where the terrain gets rough, but Edwards pushes past the circumstance to land on a solid theological truth. He sings about troubles on the left and the right, which feels a lot like David writing in the Psalms about being surrounded by enemies. When he declares that God is the God of the valley, the mountain, and the sea, he is confessing the omnipresence and sovereignty of the Creator. Just as Isaiah 43:16 reminds us that the Lord makes a way in the sea and a path in the mighty waters, this song anchors itself in the idea that God’s track record is perfect.
The song moves beyond simple optimism into active, gritty trust. By calling God Jehovah Nissi, Edwards taps into the name used when Moses built an altar after a victory, acknowledging that God is our banner and our defender. This is not about wishing for a better day; it is about standing on the character of the One who fought for Israel at the Red Sea. When the lyrics claim that God has never once failed, they are echoing the promise in Joshua 21:45 where not one word of the good promises given to the house of Israel failed. That is the kind of bedrock faith that keeps us steady when our eyes can’t see the path forward.
It is worth noting that he ties his belief to God’s nature rather than his own feelings. He commits to follow wherever the Lord plans, which echoes the surrender found in the life of Abraham. When we sing that God will make a way, we are basically saying we trust the outcome to the One who owns the geography of our lives, from the low valleys to the highest peaks. This song strips away the fluff and gets down to the business of radical reliance on the Almighty. If God is truly the same yesterday, today, and forever, then the path He carves is the only one worth taking, regardless of how steep the climb gets.
