This is it
This is it

What we've been praying
And hoping for, y'all

This is it
This is it
(This is it)
This is it
(This is it)

Always knew
The dream would come true
'Cause I've been trying
For such a long time
I almost gave up
I almost lost my mind

But this is it
(This is it)
This is it
(This is it)
This is it, yeah
(This is it)

Something way down in the soul
Keeps on telling me that

This is it
So glad that this is it
This is it
(This is it)

Time for God's love
To take control
But who would have thought that
I'd live to see
All this that's happening
Right in front of me

Lets me know that this is it
(Yeah, this is it)
This is it
(This is it)
This is it
(This is it)

What we've been praying
And hoping so long for

(This is it)
This is it, yeah
(This is it)
So glad that this is it

Always knew
The dream would come true
'Cause I've been trying
For such a long time
I almost gave up
I almost lost my mind

But this is it
(Yeah, this is it)
This is it
(This is it)
This is it
(This is it)

Always knew
The dream would come true

This is it
This is it, yeah
(This is it)
