A single mother with two children make lunches in the mornin¡¯
|
And on her way to work, she drops ¡®em off at school
|
And tells them, faith in me, faith in you
|
A farmer kneels in his fields with dust pourin¡¯ through his fingers
|
Says I¡¯m gonna lose you if it don¡¯t rain real soon
|
He looks up and says, faith in me, faith in you
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
Oh! Oh! I have to have faith
|
That¡¯s where it all starts
|
I know I have to have faith in myself
|
It¡¯s feelin¡¯ that¡¯s found right here in my heart
|
And when I think about things and all the dreams I wanna see come true
|
Let me tell you just what I do¡¦
|
I take a look in the mirror and I smile and say have faith in me, faith in you.
|
|
In the shadow of the city, by the banks of the river
|
From the doorway of his cardboard room
|
A man cries out, faith in me, faith in you
|
Your form of poverty and prejudice over hunger and pain
|
Over social injustice, just watch as the bosses rein
|
Here ¡®em saying, faith in me, faith in you
|
|
[REPEAT CHORUS]
|
|
I take a look in the mirror and I smile and say have faith in me¡¦ faith in you.

Faith in Me, Faith in You
