Faith

When I'm diggin' around in the sand

Lost in the wilderness, just lookin' for a hand

I've got seed that I must sow

Great mystery up in the sky

Lookin' down upon me with your millions of eyes

Come on, there are things I need to know

'Cause I danced with religion, I tried to make friends

But those seven days, I could not make amends with, and

Watched the kingdoms crumble as they grow

But I'm just lookin' for some faith

To get me through tomorrow with just a little grace

In this old crazy world we live

Sometimes, it's like a life raft, and other times, leaks like a sieve

Don't ask me why

I brought the picks, and I got the spades

I got some dynamite, I even brought grenades, come on

Let's dig ourselves into a great, big hole

Dig deep enough, maybe we'll reach Beijing

When we arrive, I'll hit the streets, and I'll ask for the king

Takin' care of the business on the south side, or so I've been told

And when I see him, I'll say, "Hey, you

What happened to your blue suede shoes? And, uh

Can you tell me where I hid all my gold?"

'Cause I'm just lookin' for some faith

To get me through tomorrow with just a little grace

In this old crazy world we live

Sometimes, it's like a life raft, and other times, leaks like a sieve

And when it all comes crumblin' down

Help me drop an anchor to keep my wits there on the ground

This peace of mind

Is all I need to unwind

All these tangled knots inside

I'm on my knees, I'm crying, and, uh

Tell me I'm not all alone

Alone

Well, I've gone within, and I've gone without

And I know my greatest sins are all of my doubts

And all the fear that corrodes my soul

And I do know I'm a long time dead, and

My papa said you make your bed, and

Leave all behind unbroken as you roam

And then you'll find your faith

That gets you through tomorrow with just a little grace

In this old crazy world we live

Sometimes, it's like a life raft, and other times, leaks like a sieve

And when it all comes crumblin' down

Help me drop an anchor to keep my roots there on the ground

In this old crazy world we live

Sometimes, it's like a life raft, and other times, leaks like a sieve

Peace of mind

Is all I need to unwind

All these tangled knots inside

I'm on my knees, I'm crying, and, uh

Tell me I'm not all alone

Tell me I'm not all alone

Tell me I'm not all alone (But keep on tellin' me, yeah)

Know you're not all, all alone (But keep on tellin' me, yeah)

Know you're not all alone (But keep on tellin' me, yeah)

No, you're not alone

Well, I'm diggin' around in the sand

Lost in the wilderness, just lookin' for a hand

I've got seed that I must sow
