Seventh Day Slumber - Mama Won't Give Up lyrics

Mama sits at her bed side with watery eyes And her son ain't been home in a week She tries to tell herself, that everythings alright But I can see, the pain in mama's eyes Mama grabs her bible and she read another verse And prays to God her boy will be home soon Mama wont give up(x2) All the odds are stacked against her But thats not a reason enough Mama wont give up Theres a knock at the door, and the clock reads 4am And her son is back but he's beaten black and blue And he says Mama I cant take this life no more I'm here to tell you bye for good, im through Mama grabs her bible and she reads her son a verse She says boy you can do all things to Christ who strengthens you Mama wont give up(x2) All the odds are stacked against her But thats not a reason enough Mama wont give up Well I know this story about, mama and her son all too well That long, ago that beaten boy was me But through the Lords great love and mercies that never failed Im here today to tell you that Jesus saves And He wont give up Jesus won't give up Though you turn your back against Him Thats not a reason enough Jesus won't give up He wont give up He wont give up
