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 the 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"
Oh-oo-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 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"
If over poverty and prejudice, over hunger and pain
Over social injustice... just once, let the voices ring
Here 'em say, "Faith in me, faith in you"
Oh-oo-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 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"
I take a look in the mirror and I smile and say
"Have faith in me, faith in you"
