He didn't bring us this far to leave us
He didn't teach us to swim to let us drown
He didn't build His home in us to move away
He didn't lift us up to let us down
There are some promises in a letter
Written a long, long time ago
They're not getting older
They're getting better
Because He still wants us to know
He didn't bring us this far to leave us
He didn't teach us to swim to let us drown
He didn't build His home in us to move away
He didn't lift us up to let us down
He didn't lift us up to let us down
Never use the word "defeat"
Claim His promises every one of them
Every spoken word He'll keep
Because we're everything to Him
He didn't bring us this far to leave us
He didn't teach us to swim to let us drown
He didn't build His home in us to move away
He didn't lift us up to let us down
He didn't lift us up to let us down
