I Believe

I believe... 

For every heart that's filled with pain
For every drop of acid rain
Everyone can love the same
If every thought is built on change

I believe... 

That giving all you have's a must
That relationships are built on trust
If you don't exercise your heart it rusts
That love is the total of the sum

I believe... 

That every juncture in this life
Is an opportunity to do what's right 
Never is it wasted time
If you hold tight to the ties that bind

I believe... 

Not only is the stomach fed
But also the heart, the soul, the head
Until there is no hunger left
And all the needs of man are met

I believe... 

The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost 
Blesses those who love them most
Up and down humanities coast 
For the Bible tells me so

I believe... 

In giving everyone a chance
The answer to this life is yes
That every taken breath should be a quest 
And that life should only end in death
