Don’t give up

I might as well give up and die (Psalm 28:1; NLT).

Since God in his mercy has given us this new way,
we never give up (2 Corinthians 4:1; NLT). 

1. Don’t give up,
And don’t give in:
Weep and pray with me.

2. Don’t give up,
And don’t give in:
I will hear your plea.

3. Don’t give up,
And don’t give in:
Weep, then weep no more.

4. Don’t give up,
And don’t give in:
I have good in store.

5. Don’t give up,
And don’t give in:
Try again with me.

6. Don’t give up,
And don’t give in:
I will set you free.

If the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed
(John 8:36; NLT).
