Yet (don't give up) Lyrics
Maverick City Music · The Maverick Way Complete
[Verse 1]
God
Don’t give up on me yet,
I know I’m not your best bet
but I’m trying So don’t give up on me yet
[Verse 2]
And God
Don’t leave me here alone
I know I need to grow still
and I’m trying, But don’t leave me here alone
[Chorus]
I know I’ve come so far,
But got so far to go,
And with these brand new scars,
And this broken heart, it’s hard to really know
If there’s a reason, And if I’ll ever see it
But I wanna believe it,
So don’t give up on me yet
[Verse 3]
God,
I know it makes no sense
You love me time and time again, But I still
need reminding, Yeah, I know it makes no sense
[Chorus]
I know I’ve come so far,
But got so far to go,
And with these brand new scars,
And this broken heart, it’s hard to really know
If there’s a reason, And if I’ll ever see it
But I wanna believe it,
So don’t give up on me yet
[Bridge]
His grace will never run out
There's enough to go 'round and 'round
His love's an ocean where your shame is drowned
If you know what He knows then you'll know
[Verse 4]
God,
I know I’m not the same
But you knew that I would change
And I think that you’re trying
To tell me it’s okay
