I must believe that what's a memory now Was the only way To know that all of those you love Were just stripped away And now, if I'm the one to lead us Into a brand new day At peace I must be with the brutal truth To truly lead the way
Please God give me the strength to lead It's my charge to keep Make the sorrow the fuel I need It's my charge to keep
And now we must wipe the tears away Gather up our inner strength The loss of those we can't replace Will bring about their fate And though many lifetimes it will take To bring justice on our way We must never falter, we must never fail This is our charge to keep
Please God give me the strength to lead It's my charge to keep Make the sorrow the fuel I need It's my charge to keep
