Lyrics

"Simple Faith"
(c) 2002 David Jennings

Well it was late last night
3 hours, 16 minutes 'til the morning light
And I was out all night
Thinking all about God and the Laws of Man -
I don't understand

How every breath draws us near to the end
Why every step seems a pitfall of sin
How all of these words reach unbeatable odds - you can't win

I'll be your Simple Faith
Never lie to you
I'll be your Simple Faith
Never turn you away
I'll be your Simple Faith, all your life

Well there's so much to say
Hard to find the time when your life just slips away
And it's so hard to change
You have to hitch a ride just to catch a dream -
I just don't believe

That mortal man drives the will of the Earth
That all that is written will gather its worth
When all of the knowledge and pride we rely on descends

I'll be your Simple Faith
Never lie to you
I'll be your Simple Faith
Never hide you away
I'll be your Simple Faith, all your life

I'm holding on for something real
I'm reaching out my hand, it's you I seek
And all I've known and all I see
Are reflections of the past that don't see me
They don't even see . . .
Their blind hypocrisy

And as I feel you breathe
There's a sense of calmness coming down like a gentle rain
And it's a strange relief
To know that trust in silence lies within your hands -
Now I understand

How every breath draws us near to the end
Why every step seems a pitfall of sin
How all of these words reach unbeatable odds - you can't win

I'll be your Simple Faith
Never lie to you
I'll be your Simple Faith
Never turn you away
I'll be your Simple Faith, all your life
