Yield not! yield not! for God can make you stand; Yield not! yield not! He’ll hold you by the hand; Yield not! yield not! the blessed savior came To give you victory, all glory to His name!

Yield not to the tempter, tho’ hidden the snare, The Lord will protect you in answer to prayer; List no to the whisper that leads you astray, From evil inducements turn quickly away.

Yield not! yield not! for God can make you stand; Yield not! yield not! He’ll hold you by the hand; Yield not! yield not! the blessed savior came To give you victory, all glory to His name!

Yield not to the tempter, be strong in the Lord; How rich is His promise, how grand the reward; For all who are faithful, and triumph by grace Will find in His kingdom a crown and a place.
Chorus
Yield not! yield not! for God can make you stand; Yield not! yield not! He’ll hold you by the hand; Yield not! yield not! the blessed savior came To give you victory, all glory to His name!
