I will not give up

for I will rather die

on the battle field

than turn and cowardly

run.

This race I will endure

through Jesus Christ,

He is the Greater One

I will sit in Him.

This battle I will win

victoriously, for it is really

He who fights for me!

I will not give up

in obedience I will stand

the tests whatever they

maybe.

In humble submission

I willingly surrender

to the Master's perfect will!

My body aches and my soul

cries out in anguish

and in pain

yet I will never give up

and even when this race

is won still I will

not give up!

For it is in Jesus

Christ that I stand!
