Faith

It is believing
that great things will come
your pain will be uplifted
your suffering will be done

It is not a moment
you cannot take a dose
it has to be forever
to him you must get close

Sometimes it can be weakened
by worry or doubt
it's strength lives in you
only you can bring it out

It's power is amazing
it swallows you whole
it changes your life
if you give it control

it can't be touched or tasted
but it can be seen quite clear
just look into my eyes
and see faith in every tear
