believe in the power of change
believe that a 'suddenly' can take place
believe in the Father faith
believe that we're full of Grace

believe in power of progress
believe in potential in the human race
believe in the glory of a man of faith
believe in the power of a woman's Grace

how long will you sit on the cosmic fence
how long will you stand in vein defense
how long will you hold you fears so dear
how long, how long will it take to heal

believe in the father faith
believe in the mother's grace
believe in the holy son
the holy truth, the holy one…

how long will you stare at the great divide
how long will you give your love to pride
how long will you waste your precious time
how long, how long will take to find

How Long

Humanity's at a crossroad 
and I wonder which way we'll go
I close my eyes for answers
try to listen with my soul
theres no words
no words, I can not find the words

look to you for answers 
and I wonder what you have learned
you whisper softly there's nothin you haven't heard
there's no words
no words, the light don't shine in words

it will come 
through a child
it will come when you can smile
it comes through love

many books been written 
and so many more remain
the metaphors are different
the truth remains the same
in those words
those words
an endless reign of words

they can rhyme in a song
they can blind, when they're wrong
for me they're just beyond

a smile might be enough
a tender healing touch
a book can shed some light
a silent prayer at night
might make your spirit right

and lead to works of love
and lead to words of love...
