V5

[Verse 1 – Psalm 13:1–2] How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? How long must I wrestle with my thoughts, And day after day have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me? [Pre-Chorus] I’m holding on when the night won’t break, Still believing You’ll make a way. [Chorus] I won’t give up, I won’t give in, Even when the dark sets in. You’re the light, You’re the fight, How long, how long? — I’m still holding on! [Verse 2 – Psalm 13:3–4] Look on me and answer, Lord my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death. And my enemy will say, “I have overcome him,” And my foes will rejoice when I fall. [Pre-Chorus] Even now when I can’t see through, I know Your mercy’s breaking through. [Bridge – Psalm 13:5–6] But I trust in Your unfailing love, My heart rejoices in Your salvation. I will sing the Lord’s praise, For He has been good to me. [Final Chorus] I won’t give up, I won’t give in, Even when the dark sets in. You’re the light, You’re the fight, How long, how long — I’m still holding on! (Yeah, not tonight!) [Outro] “For He has been good to me…”
