I was born with an angel Whispering in my ear Telling me sacred secrets That God wanted me to hear And I have lived to tell The mysteries I've been told And even when they tell me It's my time to go No, I will not No, I will not Not go quietly No, I will not No, I will not Not go quietly no, no Not go quietly no, no Not go quietly Not gonna go quiet These things I tell They are much truer Than the heart Of he who speaks And even so This humble servant Cannot help but Talk about his King So I will sing oh, 'cause I can't hold back the song I shout and scream Until God takes me home But I will not No, I will not Not go quietly No, I will not No, I will not Not go quietly no, no Not go quietly no, no Not go quietly So how can I keep silent? So how can I not speak? And tell about the Savior Who has set this prisoner free? No, I will not No, I will not Not go quietly No, I will not No, I will not Not go quietly no, no No, I will not No, I will not Not go quietly no, no Not go quietly no, no Not go quietly no, no Not go quietly no, no Not go quietly Not go quietly
