o my soul, faint not, no faint not | o my soul, keep up, up in love
it's not that we don't know or we're not shown the proof of poverty it's not that we don't have the tools to go to break this yoke of slavery we quit because it's not an easy fix and then forget that they are even there we forget to care
o my soul, faint not, no faint not | o my soul, keep up, up in love
where there is hatred, let me sow love where there is injury, let me pardon where there is darkness, let the Light come, come
o my soul, faint not, no faint not | o my soul, keep up, up in love
o my soul, faint not, no faint not | o my soul, keep up, up in love
