My Lord, I have read this book so many times, |
|
But nowhere can, can I find the page that says what I experienced today has any grace |
|
Now I know that life is meant to be hard, |
|
That's how I learned to appreciate my God |
|
Though my courage may be tried, |
|
I can tell you I wont hide, |
|
Because the footprints show you were by my side |
|
You can lie to a child with a smiling face, |
|
Tell me that color aint about a race |
|
You can cast the first stone, |
|
You can break my bones |
|
But you never gonna break, |
|
You never gonna break my faith |
|
Faith and hope aint yours to give |
|
Truth and liberty are mine to live |
|
Steal a crown from a king, break an angels wings |
|
But you never gonna break , |
|
You never gonna break my faith |
|
My Lord, wont you help them, help them, help them to understand |
|
That when someone takes the life of an innocent man |
|
Well they never really won |
|
Because all they really done is set the soul free |
|
Where it's supposed to be |
|
You can lie to a child with a smiling face, |
|
Tell me that color aint about a race |
|
You can cast the first stone, you can break my bones |
|
But you never gonna break, |
|
You never gonna break my faith |
|
Faith and hope aint yours to give |
|
Truth and liberty are mine to live |
|
Steal a crown from a king, break an angels wings |
|
But you never gonna break, |
|
You never gonna break my faith |
|
For those we lose before their time, |
|
I pray their souls will find a light |
|
I know that the day will surely come, when it will be done |
|
You never gonna break my faith |
|
You never gonna break my faith |
