Never Give Up
[Intro]
Our Father
Who art in Heaven
Hear my cry
Hear my cry
Now

[Verse 1]
Been touched again, rain on me
Down on my luck, got chains on me
I lost a job to gain a child
The road is long, but I'm losing time
Adjust my skin to protect my soul
I search for peace in a gaze of hope
Collect my strength to make my way
To be in bloom on the flowerin' day

[Chorus]
Never Let me give up
I can't stop trying
(I can't stop trying)
I can't stop crying
(Oh, oh, oh)
To water the flowers to make me smile
Never let me give up
(Never let me)
'Cause I've got family
(I've got a family)
And with all the strength in me
It won't let me give up
[Verse 2]
Born to live, but we all die
But while we're here, there's sacrifices
Baby June is off to war
While his little girl's just turned four
No birthday cakes, no candles lit
Just a photo of his family in his wallet
Say we pray to live, and we live to pray
Thanking God for the flowers along the way

[Chorus]
Never let me give up
I can't stop trying
(It won't let me)
I can't stop crying
(Give up no)
To water the flowers to make me smile
(This love that I have inside of me)
Never let me give up
'Cause I've got family
(I can't stop trying)
And with all the strength in me
(Oh no)
It won't let me give up

[Bridge]
You can't make me lie
'Cause I've got a family, yeah
Ooh, I was born to live, and I live to pray
Thanking God for the flowers along the way
Baby June is off to war
Watch his baby girl that's just turned four
No birthday cake and no candles lit
Just a photo of his family in his wallet
Why the test of tears, why shed the tears?
Oh, oh, oh
[Chorus]
Never Let me give up
I can't stop trying
I can't stop crying
(It won't let me)
To water the flowers to make me smile
Never let me give up
(Our Father who art in Heaven)
'Cause I've got family
(Hallowed be thy name)
And with all the strength in me
(Thy will be done, thy will be done, oh no, no)
It won't let me give up

[Outro]
Give me the strength to pull out
Give me the words to be strong
May I, may I, may I, may I
Never ever give up
I can't stop trying
I can't stop crying
Oh-ooh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
