A single mother with two children make lunches in the morning
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 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, oh, I have to have faith, that's where it all starts
I know I have to have faith in myself
Its feelin' that'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"

Your form of poverty and prejudice over hunger and pain
Over social injustice, just watch as the bosses reign
Here I'm saying, faith in me, faith in you

Oh, oh, I have to have faith, that's where it all starts
I know I have to have faith in myself
Its feelin' that'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"
