I once was a child

With innocent eyes

And my family sworn

They knew best for my life

I followed their rules

As I played with my friends

When it came to the world

I never thought it would end

Help me Faith

Help me Faith, shield me from sorrow

From fear of tomorrow

Help me Faith

Help me Faith, shield me from sadness

From worry and madness

Lead me to the place

And as I grew up

I could never be free

'Cause the shackles I wore

Can't be touched nor be seen

My heart never loved

And my soul couldn't laugh

So much hate in my life

Couldn't make out the path

Help me Faith

Help me Faith, shield me from sorrow

From fear of tomorrow

Help me Faith

Help me Faith, shield me from sadness

From worry and madness

Lead me to the place

And when I grew old

I was riddled with sin

Locked my soul in the dark

Never let the light in

I crawled towards the gate

With little time left

I cried ‘what have I done?'

As I took my last breath

Help me Faith

Help me Faith, shield me from sorrow

From fear of tomorrow

Help me Faith

Help me Faith, shield me from sadness

From worry and madness

Lead me to the place

Lead me to the place
