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