Don't Lose Heart

[Intro: Steven Curtis Chapman]

(Don't lose heart)

(Don't lose heart)

[Verse 1: Steven Curtis Chapman & Mitchell Tenpenny]

Another sleepless night

Prayin' hope comes with the morning light

Right now you're feeling like you've lost this fight

And fear is screamin' out your name

When you say "God, help me"

You wonder if He's even listening

Truth is, I've wondered the very same thing

So you don't have to feel ashamed

[Pre-Chorus: Steven Curtis Chapman]

Let me walk with you through this valley

And tell you all that I've learned to be true

[Chorus: Steven Curtis Chapman & Mitchell Tenpenny, Mitchell Tenpenny]

Don't lose heart, don't you dare let go

I've been where you are, you are not alone

I know it gets dark, I know it gets hard

But we're gonna make it home (We're gonna make it home)

So don't lose heart

[Post-Chorus: Steven Curtis Chapman]

(Don't lose heart)

(Don't lose heart)

[Verse 2: Steven Curtis Chapman & Mitchell Tenpenny]

Take my hand (Take my hand)

And I'll show you all the scars from where I've been (I'll show you where I've been)

Remind you how we both know this story ends (Remember how it ends)

And I know you'll do the same for me (I know you'll do the same for me)

[Pre-Chorus: Steven Curtis Chapman, Steven Curtis Chapman & Mitchell Tenpenny]

These afflictions that are only temporary

Are gonna turn to glory beyond compare

[Chorus: Steven Curtis Chapman & Mitchell Tenpenny]

So don't lose heart, don't you dare let go

I've been where you are, you are not alone

I know it gets dark, I know it gets hard

But we're gonna make it home

So don't lose heart

[Post-Chorus: Steven Curtis Chapman]

(Don't lose heart)

(Don't lose heart)

[Bridge: Steven Curtis Chapman & Mitchell Tenpenny]

Don't lose hope, and don't lose faith

Just hold on tight to every promise God has made

You can lose the fear in the light of grace

Just lift your eyes to your Father's face

Hear the song He's singin' over you

He says, "Don't lose heart

I'm never gonna let you go

I'm right where you are, you're safe in My arms"

[Chorus: Steven Curtis Chapman & Mitchell Tenpenny]

So don't lose heart, don't you dare let go (Oh, don't)

I've been where you are, you're never gonna be alone (Oh, been where you are)

I know it gets dark, I know it gets hard (So hard)

But we're gonna make it home (Make it home)

So don't lose heart (Don't lose heart)

[Post-Chorus: Steven Curtis Chapman, Mitchell Tenpenny & Both]

(Don't lose heart, we're gonna make it home) Oh, don't lose heart

(Don't lose heart, we're gonna make it home) Don't, don't lose heart

(Don't lose heart, we're gonna make it home) We're gonna make it home

(Don't lose heart, we're gonna make it home)

So don't lose heart
