A SINGLE MOTHER
WITH TWO CHILDREN
MAKIN' LUNCHES
IN THE MORNIN'
AND ON HER WAY
TO WORK
SHE DROPS THEM OFF
AT SCHOOL
AND TELLS THEM
FAITH IN ME
FAITH IN YOU
A FARMER KNEELS
IN HIS FIELDS
WITH THE DUST
POURING THROUGH
HIS FINGERS
HE SAYS
I'M GONNA LOSE YOU
IF IT DON'T RAIN
REAL SOON
HE LOOKS UP AND SAYS
FAITH IN ME FAITH IN YOU
OH OOH OH
I HAVE TO HAVE FAITH
THAT'S WHERE
IT ALL STARTS
I KNOW I HAVE TO HAVE
FAITH IN MYSELF
IT'S FREE
AND IT'S FOUND
RIGHT HERE IN MY HEART
AND WHEN I THINK
ABOUT THINGS
AND ALL THE DREAMS
I WANT TO 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
IF OVER POVERTY
AND PREJUDICE
OVER HUNGER AND PAIN
OVER SOCIAL INJUSTICE
JUST ONCE
LET THE VOICES RING
HEAR 'EM SINGING
FAITH IN ME
FAITH IN YOU
OH OOH OH
I HAVE TO HAVE FAITH
THAT'S WHERE
IT ALL STARTS
I KNOW I HAVE TO HAVE
FAITH IN MYSELF
IT'S FREE AND
IT'S FOUND
RIGHT HERE
IN MY HEART
AND WHEN I THINK
ABOUT THINGS
AND ALL THE DREAMS
I WANT TO 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
I TAKE A LOOK
IN THE MIRROR
AND I SMILE AND SAY
HAVE FAITH IN ME
FAITH IN YOU
