The choice to believe
even when the water's rising.
The choice to believe
even if the sun stops shining.
The choice to believe
even when the sky is crying.
The choice to believe
even when the life jacket has a hole in it.
The choice to believe
even in the mud run.
The choice to believe
even when the climb is steep.
The choice to believe
even when I'm all out of breath.
The choice to believe
even when the gate is locked.
The choice to believe
even when the stepping stone is missing.
The choice to believe
even when the answers aren't forth coming.
The choice to believe
you're right beside me.
The choice to believe
I will survive it.
