This spiralbound songbook contains the sheet music and the stories behind 21 of the Chuck Fulmore Trio’s most beloved songs. The trio hopes these stories behind the songs will reach some discouraged, struggling soul that is needing help along the way to look up, hold on, and Never Give Up.
Paul wrote that suffering produces perseverance, which develops our character and provides us with hope—and this hope will not disappoint us. But until Jesus returns and fulfills our hope, we must press on in faith. Here, Chuck and Dona share the stories behind their songs, and together we will find encouragement to never give up.

“As a 13-year-old, I listened to the Chuck Fulmore Trio sing their song ‘Never Give Up’ at the Oregon Camp Meeting. I was aware that Chuck was fighting cancer, and even though he was weak, his voice and faith were strong. This cherished memory has stayed with me and given me courage at times when I met seemingly insurmountable obstacles.”

“Chuck has been a dear friend of ours for years. Thousands of people all over the world have been blessed as the Heritage Singers shared his songs of encouragement.”

“According to my computer, ‘Never Give Up’ gets played twice as often as any other song. Partly that’s because of the exquisite harmony and encouraging lyrics. But it’s also because of the personal connection I have with my dear friends Chuck and Dona. When you read the story behind each song, don’t be surprised if your friendship with Christ grows sweeter.”

“It was an honor to play on the Fulmore’s first album and then personally record some of their lovely songs. Their sweet music was borne out of their broken hearts and has the rare quality of moving the soul. Many years were spent making music together. I look forward to making more music with them in heaven. God bless you, Chuck and Dona. I love you.”
—Dona Klein
“Please send me your recording of ‘Never Give Up.’ Recently, I heard you sing this song, and Chuck give his testimony at a time I’d given up. I am an ex-minister. That day I decided to turn around and serve the Lord, and I want to be able to hear that song over and over.”
