A Charge to Keep

I must believe that what's a memory now
 Was the only way
 To know that all of those you love
 Were just stripped away
 And now, if I'm the one to lead us
 Into a brand new day
 At peace I must be with the brutal truth
 To truly lead the way
 Please God give me the strength to lead
 It's my charge to keep
 Make the sorrow the fuel I need
 It's my charge to keep
 Please God give me the strength to lead
 It's my charge to keep
 Make the sorrow the fuel I need
 It's my charge to keep
 And now we must wipe the tears away
 Gather up our inner strength
 The loss of those we can't replace
 Will bring about their fate
 And though many lifetimes it will take
 To bring justice on our way
 We must never falter, we must never fail
 This is our charge to keep
 Please God give me the strength to lead
 It's my charge to keep
 Make the sorrow the fuel I need
 It's my charge to keep
 Please God give me the strength to lead
 It's my charge to keep
 Make the sorrow the fuel I need
 It's my charge to keep
