Chorus:
Well, I'm not givin' up, No, I'm not turnin' 'round,
By the grace of God, I'll wear a shinning crown someday.
Well, I'll keep holdin' on, to that nailed scared hand
I'm not givin' up, no, I'll keep goin' on.
I've been walkin' though the valley, through this vail of tears
Times I've even questioned, even if my Lord was near.
Many times that old tempter. He says why not turn around
You can't get any further, because you're just losin' ground.

Chorus: (Oh, But, I'm not givin' up)......Then rest of chorus

Would you mind to tell me, there's been something botherin' me.
Why is it that old devil, he just won't let God's children be
See, he has purposed and determined to get right in the way
And turn us from our way of life and lead our souls astray.

Chorus: (Oh, But, I'm not givin' up)......Then rest of chorus

Chorus: (Well, I'm not givin' up)............Twice
