GOD NEVER GAVE UP ON ME

I was out in this world 
I thought it was all about me 
I was blinded by lustful pleasures 
unwilling to stop or see 

God never gave up on me 
no matter how far I'd sunk down 
restored reborn renewed 
my faith now on solid ground 

I lived a life of decadence 
only seeking selfish pleasures
I forsook God's word 
fell short of His measure 

God never gave up on me 
no matter how far I'd sunk down 
restored reborn renewed 
my faith now on solid ground 

people need to realize 
and simply understand 
the foundation of God 
is solid rock not sinking sand 
His word nourishes souls 
His mercy lightens hearts
God will never give up on you
and from Him you should never part 

I was down and out 
as low as a human could go 
I allowed the enemy to run the entire show 
yet despite me being myself 
of me God continue to seek 
He never gave up on me Lord 
Even though I was shallow and weak 

God never gave up on me 
no matter how far I'd sunk down 
restored reborn renewed 
my faith now on solid ground 

now I'm back in His arms 
a new creation in Christ 
meditating on His word 
my future looking bright 

God never gave up on me 
no matter how far I'd sunk down 
restored reborn renewed 
my faith now on solid ground 

God never gave up for me 
no matter how far I'd sunk down 
restored reborn renewed 
my faith now on solid ground
