I HAVE FAITH
copyright 2001
Mary Beth Stone

Little girl murdered by someone down the road
Twelve-year-old rapist tried as an adult
Folks shootin’ deer cause they stray into the mall
Could be the human race ain’t human after all

Sure get’s me feelin’ like there’s no rhyme or reason
and there’s no point in goin’ on
But I never give up hope, ‘cause in my heart I know
It’s darkest just before dawn

And I have faith…that it’s gonna be all right
I have faith…that we’re gonna see the light
and with God’s grace we’re all gonna fly
Oh…I have faith
I have faith

Easter Sunday comin’ in a couple of days
Little church in Louisville goes up in flames
Synagogue cross town hears the news
Opens up that temple for those Christians to use

A Palestinian downed by a Jewish gun
But his heart is still alive
The man to whom they gave it, he wears a Star of David
Are you starting to see why…

I have faith…that it’s gonna be all right
I have faith…that we’re gonna see the light
and with God’s grace we’re all gonna fly
Oh…I have faith
I have faith

That love is risin’ up and Heaven on Earth is comin’
and we’re gonna be saved

Yeah, I have faith…that it’s gonna be all right
I have faith…that we’re gonna see the light
and with God’s grace we’re all gonna fly
Oh…I have faith
I have faith…that it’s gonna be all right
I have faith…that we’re gonna see the light
and with God’s grace we’re all gonna fly
Oh…I have faith
I have faith
