143. I Would Not Be Denied

1 When pangs of death seized on my soul,
Unto the Lord I cried,
Till Jesus came and made me whole;
I would not be denied.

Chorus:
I would not be denied,
I would not be denied,
Till Jesus came and made me whole;
I would not be denied.

2 As Jacob in the days of old,
I wrestled with the Lord;
And instant, with a courage bold,
I stood upon His word. [Chorus]

3 Old Satan said my Lord was gone
And would not hear my prayer;
But praise the Lord! the work is done,
And Christ, the Lord is here. [Chorus]
