A single mother with two children Makes lunches in the morning And on her way to work she drops them off at school And tells them, "Faith in me, faith in you" A farmer kneels in his fields with dust Running 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, 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 shadows 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" Before the poverty and prejudice All the hunger and pain And the social injustice, just watch the boss' reign Here 'em sing, "Faith in me, faith in you" Oh, I have to have faith That's where it all starts I know I have to have faith in myself It's free, it's found right here in my heart 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"
