In Good Faith

(In good faith) Rocks are buried beneath tons of earth To become diamond (In good faith) With the gift of the sunlight The kudzu vine goes climbing (In good faith) Instruments play songs Brought forth from the minds of their makers (In good faith) These vibrations resound Bringing union and joy to all takers In good faith In good faith (In good faith) We open our eyes To a parade of first morning's breaking (In good faith) We pray what we see and we hear Might be ours for the taking (In good faith) We rise every day And we will 'till our golden star bursts (In good faith) We open our hearts And say, "Lord, do your best, do your worst" In good faith, in good faith (In good faith) We place our hands On the faces of our mothers (In good faith) We do what we can To strike fear from the hearts of our brothers (In good faith) In good faith In good faith, in good faith Oh, oh, in good faith
