Petra - Never Say Die lyrics

Words and music by Bob Hartman

You've been tossing in your sleep

All the promises you made that you couldn't keep

And you're feeling sorry for yourself

Think He's done with you, had Him on the shelf

And you're tired of running the race

Straying to and fro, falling on your face

Oh, you want to throw your towel on in

Brother before you do, you better think again

Never say die, no

You've come too far to turn back now

Give it one more try and He'll help you through

Never say die, no

We are weak but He is strong

and strength He will supply

When you ask Him to

You went wrong, you remember when

Instead of pressing toward the mark you missed it once again

And you think that you're the only one

Who's ever come your way and done what you have done

So you try to tuck your tail and run

But then you realize you're back where you've begun

Oh can't you see Him waiting there for you?

With arms wide open now, wanting to see you through

Press on, press on

Keep your hand upon that plow

Press on, press on

And he will lead you through somehow
