Can't Give Up Now

The chorus of this song is adapted from the chorus of the Black gospel classice "I Don't Feel No Ways Tired" written by Curtis Burrell and popularized by James Cleveland.

There will be mountains that I will have to climb
And there will be battles that I will have to fight
But victory or defeat, it's up to me to decide
But how can I expect to win if I never try

I just can't give up now
I come too far from where I started from
Nobody told me the road would be easy
And I don't believe He's brought me this far
To leave me

Never said there wouldn't be trial, never said I wouldn't fail
Never said that everything would go the way I wanted to go 
But when my back is against the wall & I feel all hope is gone
I'll just lift my head up to the sky & say help me to be strong

(bridge) Oh oh, no You didn't bring me
Out here to leave me lonely
Even when I can't see clearly
I know that You are with me so I can't
