1 Temptations are always abounding,
You’ll meet them wherever you go,
But when and wherever you face them,
May God give you grace to say “No.”

Chorus:
May God give you grace to say “No,”
May God give you grace to say “No,”
Whene’er you are tempted of evil
May God give you grace to say “No.”

2 The tempter will try to defeat you,
Some sinful attraction will show,
But no matter where he may meet you,
May God give you grace to say “No.” [Chorus]

3 One day he may offer you pleasure,
The next he may tempt by a blow,
But when you are tempted by Satan,
May God give you grace to say “No.” [Chorus]

4 When you shall have reached yonder city
Temptations no more you will know,
But while you’re on earth, when you’re tempted,
May God give you grace to say “No.” [Chorus]
