"Hope, Faith And Love" lyrics

"Hope, Faith And Love"

I need hope to hold up my head in this town
I need faith to get out of bed when I'm down
When my dreams are falling
And all that I've tried has gone wrong
I need love to move on ahead and be strong

Ah yeah

I need hope to look for the good through the bad
I need faith to know, I ain't lost what I had
When they've lied and cheat me
And tear what I care for in two
Uh, I need love, to rise up above and renew

Oh yes, I said, I (I) need hope
Said hope against sorrow
I (I) need faith
Yes, in faith in tomorrow
I (I) need love

Singin' 'bout it
All right

I need hope to go where I know I should be
I need faith to know there's an answer for me
When my skies are falling
And clouds of despair start to form
I need love to weather the wilds of the storm

Uh yes, I said, I (I) need hope
Said hope against sorrow
I (I) need faith
Yes, in faith in tomorrow
I (I) need love

Singin' 'bout it
Just worryin' 'bout it
Just talkin' 'bout it man...
Yeah...
