I find it's simplicity amazing because it's certainly powerful and effective! The key to live performance of this song is knowing all of the parts well and giving the lead ample room to navigate freely and almost spontaneously. (In other words the song will probably never be sung the same way twice)! I typically like to customize the verses whenever we sing it to make it more "personal". Enjoy! ***************************** I Made it Over –Tye Tribbett ***************************** Its a new Day New Year I’m so Happy you are here Many Thought, I wouldn’t make it But thank God I made it Over I Made It Over As I look back On last year A lot of My Friends Aren’t here But I realize That it Could’ve been me Thank You Lord I made it Over (YES I DID SAY, yes I did say) I made It Over Last year was so Hard It Got so rough I told the Lord Imma bout to give up But I’m so Glad That I hung in there LOOK AT ME!!!! I made it over (YES I DID SAY, yes I did say) I Made it over Instrumental Break (ad-libs/worship) Made it over, Made it Over Made it over (Sop)I (All) Made it over Made it over Made it over Hi Candi,

Its a new Day
New Year
I’m so Happy you are here
Many Thought, I wouldn’t make it
But thank God

I Made It Over
As I look back On last year
A lot of My Friends Aren’t here
But I realize That it Could’ve been me
Thank You Lord
I made it Over (YES I DID SAY, yes I did say)

Last year was so Hard
It Got so rough
I told the Lord
Imma bout to give up
But I’m so Glad
That I hung in there
LOOK AT ME!!!!
I made it over (YES I DID SAY, yes I did say)
I Made it over
Instrumental Break (ad-libs/worship)
Made it over, Made it Over Made it over

My college gospel choir is singing it this year so I would love to give them reference of this song. It is a great song and anthem for the year and I know we can minister if everyone in earshot would really reflect on the words he is saying and look back at the whole year of all the trials and tribulations they went through just to realize that God has brought them over the hurdles. I know if I listen and do that, i can count the many blessings God has bestowed on me and tears of gratitude and thankfulness will flow. I will stay tuned to see what happens next :) I will also refer your page to our directors ;) Thanks for replying :-D Oh that would be wonderful.

The amazing thing is that to my knowledge the song has never been Officially recorded and released, however the strength of the song has allowed it to develop an amazing reputation! In addition to word of mouth, the song has thrived through various Youtube clips of concert footage and through the ever-elusive "underground" recordings. This particular version is from NYE 2008 and New Breed was able to sing along with them as they were in concert together. Y<a href="http://gospelworshipleader.com/blog/?p=113" rel="nofollow">ou can check my posting here for a more recent version from 2009.</a> I'm almost positive they did it again this year, but I'll check my sources and let you know! Finally I'll touch base with my contacts to see if I can get any word on the likelihood of an official version....stay tuned!! Rob Hi Candi,

"I made it over"? I was trying to Google it and can't find it. I find the Timothy Wright and the Florida Mass Choir version. Its by Tye right or is it just New Breed.

Here are the Lyrics exactly as they were given to me:
Its a new Day
New Year
I’m so Happy you are here
Many Thought, I wouldn’t make it
But thank God

I made it Over
I Made It Over

As I look back On last year
A lot of My Friends Aren’t here
But I realize That it Could’ve been me
Thank You Lord
I made it Over
I made It Over

Last year was so Hard
It Got so rough
I told the Lord
Imma bout to give up
But I’m so Glad
That I hung in there
LOOK AT ME!!!!

I made it over
I Made it over

Made it over, Made it Over Made it over
(Sop)I
(All) Made it over Made it over Made it over

Please note that the Youtube video I’m liking to only contains the first 2 verses before they go into the next song (New Season)…because of this I decided to really go all out and customize a third verse for our congregation:
Mount Moriah, sing with me
God has given, Victory
The Devil tried, To shut us down
But We’re still standing!!
We made It Over

:-) I really suggest that you do the same. The song format is a call and response type, so it’s simple enough to be creative! (just be sure to practice what you’re gonna say first)! Congregations tend to get more involved when you make it personal to them.
