I'll Not Turn My Back On Him Now

Ch: I’ll not turn my back on Him now.

He’s given to me everything I have.

He gave me my first breath,

I’ll give Him my last.

I’ll not turn my back on Him now.

V1: “Curse the Lord & die”, she said.

“Job, cure the Lord & die.”

He said, “No, I’ll not turn my back on Him now.

My vows were made for good or bad.

He’s been the best friend I’ve ever had.

& I’ll not turn my back on Him now.”

Ch: I’ll not turn my back on Him now.

He’s given to me everything I have.

He gave me my first breath,

I’ll give Him my last.

I’ll not turn my back on Him now.

V2: There they go, old Job’s possessions.

Everything old Job held precious,

but Job said, “Bless the name of the Lord.”

Friends & family, houses & land

God holds all things in His hands

& I’ll not turn my back on Him now.

Ch: I’ll not turn my back on Him now.

He’s given to me everything I have.

He gave me my first breath,

I’ll give Him my last.

I’ll not turn my back on Him now.

He gave me my first breath,

I’ll give Him my last.

I’ll not turn my back on Him now.
