Act Of Faith Lyrics

(Springfield, Marlette, Pierce)

I tell you honestly, don't you go and throw your heart away
I know it's so hard to do,
you've got to let go when you want to hold on.
I know how much you miss him celebrate what you had.
don't cry about the things left unsaid,
it'll do no good.
you look for mercy and a meaning somewhere,
but you know that the hurting won't go
till you walk through the fire.

It's gonna take an act of faith to stand up and face the day.
It's gonna take an act of faith, nobody can make you stay
It's gonna take an act of faith
maybe love will find it's way back into your life.
Here's my heart my love is in it
Here's my heart my love is in it

Stand up, don't you fall.
You just take good care of where you are.
You're thinking life's through with you.
that's not what he'd want or what you should do.
I know you loved him baby celebrate who he was.
I know you know you've got to go on and live your life.
Go down to the river of the spirit that runs through you,
and lay yourself down in the healing waters.

It's gonna take an act of faith to stand up and face the day.
It's gonna take an act of faith, nobody can make you stay
It's gonna take an act of faith
maybe love will find it's way back into your life.

Love is a healer.
There is no purpose served in holding on.
Love is a healer.
There is no understanding why.
Love is a healer.
There is no sin in you that brought this to your door.
My love, it just is.

(in memory of Bobby Brookes)
