Not Yet

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
That he said "Not yet"

Just when I was gonna quit
God said "Not yet"
I said let somebody else have the place
But he said "Not yet"
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
I got work to do
I can't waste no time
And he brought me through
Heaven can wait for me
I 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")
Not yet ("Not yet")
Heard 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 ("Not yet")
It's not time to leave ("Not yet")
It's not time for you ("Not yet")
You gotta be (Oh "Not yet")
You got to be today ("Not yet")
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
You, not yet
God said "Not yet, not yet, no"
