I'm reaching out, yet the sun keeps on setting
Painting me gold but bringing on the blue
As I look to the sky, I can feel the tears start swelling
And I cry, 'help me Lord, what am I to do?'
I gotta have faith, faith in the Lord
That the sun will rise tomorrow and I'll be stronger than before
I gotta have faith, faith in the Lord
That these trying times will help me and I can reap my reward
I look around and begin to count my blessings
One by one and I see what God has done
My heart is whole and I don't need to keep on guessing
I am a child of God and after all is said and done
But I gotta have faith, (faith) faith in the Lord (faith in the Lord)
That the sun will rise tomorrow and I'll be stronger than before
I gotta have faith, (faith) faith in the Lord (faith in the Lord)
That these trying times will help me and I can reap my reward
Oh and I know, that my saviours walking with me
By my side, in my heart and in my mind
He's the light of my life that I need to survive
(He's the light of my life I need to survive)
And I know that I am because of Him
So I'm gonna have faith, faith in the Lord
And the sun will rise tomorrow and I'll be - stronger than before
I'm gonna have faith, (faith) faith in the Lord (faith in the Lord)
That these trying (faith) times will help me
(faith in the Lord) and I can reap my reward
I gotta have –
I gotta, gotta, (faith) gotta, gotta have faith
(faith in the Lord) in the Lord, ooh
And the sun will (faith) rise tomorrow
(faith in the Lord) and I'll be stronger than before
I gotta (faith) have faith, faith in the Lord (faith in the Lord)
(faith, faith in the Lord)
*scatting*
I need my reward
I gotta have faith (faith)
