Thought it was the end this time
God said, "Not yet"
I thought that I would lose my mind
God said, "Not yet"
Thinkin' 'bout my yesterday
Wondering how I got away
But death heard Jesus say
He said, "Not yet"

Just when I was gonna quit
God said, "Not yet"
I said, "Let somebody else handle this"
But He said, "Not yet"
When I thought that I had done so wrong
Feeling like my time was gone but
God gave me this song to tell you
"Not yet" (oh yes)

I can't die right now (die right now)
I got work to do (I got work to do)
God made a way somehow (made a way for me)
And he brought me through (brought me through)
Heaven can wait for me (heaven wait for me)
I got a destiny (got a destiny)
And I'm walking in victory
God said, "Not yet"

Oh, not yet
God is talking to you (not yet)
Hear the Lord say (not yet)
Every one listen when god said (not yet)
Hear the Lord say to you (oh, not yet)
Oh, God said (not yet)
It's not over for you (not yet)
God said (not yet)
You can't throw in the towel (oh, not yet)
Can't give up now (not yet)
No, you can't stop now (not yet)
Mm, not yet (not yet)
Hear the word of the Lord say (oh, not yet)
It's not over for you, no (not yet)
No, not yet (not yet)
Not yet, no (not yet)
You're not going nowhere (oh, not yet)
It's not time to leave (not yet)
It's not over for you (not yet)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (not yet)
You gotta believe (oh, not yet)
Gotta believe today (not yet)
You got to believe (oh, not yet)
Not yet, yeah (not yet)
Death, get away (oh, not yet)
Death, get away (not yet)
Death, get away (not yet)
God said, "Not yet"

Oh, not yet, not yet
For you, not yet
God said, "Not yet, not yet, no, oh" (mm, yeah)
