Another Door Opened

Lyrics

Another Door Just Opened

[Intro]
Ooh-ooh
Yeah, yeah

I wasn’t even looking
I was just trying to stand
Then the Lord stepped in
With blessing in His hand

Another door just opened

[Verse 1]
I had my head down working
Trying to make it through
Doing what I could
With what I knew to do

I had prayers still pending
And dreams on the shelf
Trying to encourage others
While needing help myself

Then one phone call came
One word changed the room
God had already moved
Before I knew what to do

[Pre-Chorus]
So I don’t call it lucky
I don’t call it chance
The Lord heard my cry
And gave my faith a dance

[Chorus]
Another door just opened
Another way got made
The Lord keeps blessing me
Day after day

Another door just opened
Another prayer got through
What I couldn’t make happen
God knew how to do

I was standing in the hallway
Trying not to lose hope
Then heaven touched the handle
And another door just opened

[Brass Drop]
Ba-da-bap, ba-da-bap
Ba-da-bap-bap-bap

Ooh-ooh
Yeah, yeah

Another door
Another door

[Verse 2]
I’ve had doors close on me
That made me cry at night
But the Lord knew better
And He kept my future bright

Some rooms weren’t for me
Some tables weren’t mine
But God had something waiting
Right on down the line

Now I can thank Him
For every no I heard
’Cause the yes He gave me
Was better than the first

[Pre-Chorus]
So I don’t call it lucky
I don’t call it chance
The Lord heard my cry
And gave my faith a dance

[Chorus]
Another door just opened
Another way got made
The Lord keeps blessing me
Day after day

Another door just opened
Another prayer got through
What I couldn’t make happen
God knew how to do

I was standing in the hallway
Trying not to lose hope
Then heaven touched the handle
And another door just opened

[Bridge]
Door in my trouble
Door in my pain
Door after waiting
Door after rain

Door for my family
Door for my name
Door for my future
God did it again

[Vamp]
Another door
Another door
Another door just opened

Another door
Another door
Another door just opened

[Modulation]
I was waiting
He opened it

I was praying
He opened it

I was crying
He opened it

I was trusting
He opened it

[Final Vamp]
Open door
Open door
The Lord made a way

Open door
Open door
He did it today

Another door just opened
Another door just opened
The Lord keeps blessing me

[Outro]
Ooh-ooh
Yeah, yeah

I wasn’t even looking
I was just trying to stand

Another door just opened
