Don'T Quit
As I sit and think about
All the things I've lost
I know the Lord will work it out
He'll get me through at any cost
I thought losing my job
Was possibly the worst
But when I lost my house
Lord knows that it hurt
Trying to raise my children
With no income at all
That's a bad feeling
Watching your world crumble and fall
Sometimes I went to bed hungry
Not enough food to eat
Enough for my children only
So they'd get a good nights sleep
This has been a hard year
It hit me like a ton of bricks
My eyes are filled with tears
But my Lord said don't quit
