(chorus)
God, didn't give up on me (2x)
When I gave up
[well, he didn't let me go]
when I messed up
[he restored my soul]
Oh, it was God
That didn't give up
[Read in the paper, the other day
about a preacher whom fell from grace,
He be the church for forgiveness,
he realized he'd made a mistake,
and some folks left the church and said,
he suppose to be a man of the cloth, see they forgot he was the same man that prayed for them when the were lost,
So glad, God is not like man
He won't throw you away after you've done wrong, God will pick you up, and dust you off, and put you back where you belong]
(chorus)

Oh, It was God
That didn't give up
