You Never Gave Up On Me

I often said you didn’t exist
Because my eyes wouldn’t see
I may have given up on you lord
But you never gave up on me

When troubles happened in my life
I would hang my head and cry
You let these happen to me
And at times I wondered why

I was quick to say if there was a God
He wouldn’t let these happen to me
I may have given up on you lord
But you never gave up on me

At many times during my life
When the troubles were hard to bear
I forgot the teachings of my youth
And said you were not there

I’ve heard your word again dear Lord
And my eyes they finally see
I thank you every day of my life
That you never gave up on me
