Lyrics

My Lord, I have read this book so many times
 But nowhere can I find the page that says
 What I experienced today has any grace
 Now I know that life is meant to be hard
 That's how I learned to appreciate my God
 Though my courage may be tried, I can tell you I won't hide
 Because the footprints show you were by my side
 You can lie to a child with a smiling face
 Tell me that color ain't about a race
 You can cast the first stone, you can break my bones
 But you never gonna break, you never gonna break my faith
 Faith and hope ain't yours to give
 Truth and liberty are mine to live
 Steal a crown from a king, break an angels wings
 But you never gonna break, you never gonna break my faith
 My Lord, won't you help them, help them, help them to understand
 That when someone takes the life of an innocent man
 Well, they never really won because all they've really done
 Is set the soul free where it's supposed to be
 You can lie to a child with a smiling face
 Tell me that color ain't about a race
 You can cast the first stone, you can break my bones
 But you never, you never gonna break my faith
 Faith and hope ain't yours to give
 Truth and liberty are mine to live
 Steal a crown from a king, break an angels wings
 But you never gonna break, you never gonna break my faith
 For those we lose before their time
 I pray their souls will find the light
 I know that the day will surely come
 When his will, his will, will be done
 Yes, it will, alright
 Never gonna break my faith
 Never gonna break my faith
 You never gonna break my faith
