Story behind the song
This was a song that was actually written while i was recording the "Paradise" album. It was a last minute decision to add this song to the project because i already had 11 songs that i was recording for this album. "Got To Have Faith" replaced another song that was supposed to be on this Cd. I felt very compelled to record "Got To Have Faith" instead of the other song. I sensed in my spirit that a lot of people needed to be encouraged to stand strong in times like these. Hopefully, this energetic song will light the fires of faith once again in our hearts, reminding us who we are in Christ. That we are the victors, and now it's time for us to WIN!!! ( One of the best tracks from the album "Paradise" )
Lyrics
(1st Verse) We walk by faith and not by sight we don't care what it looks like i know they told you that it don't look good but you got to hang in there and fight you been through a lot you've gotten stronger now there ain't nothing you cant lick i know you feel the pressure everything is coming at you you've come to far so you cant quit (Chorus) When you're feeling down - got to have faith When you see no way out - got to have faith ( 2nd Verse) This is a new day another chance to face that giant standing in the way i got the power to speak to that mountain move and it will do just what i say i been this way before i'll walk right through that door victory is on the other side God is my best friend i put my faith in him and now it's time for me to win (Chorus) When you're feeling down - got to have faith When you see no way out - got to have faith Written, Arranged and Produced by Garry Moore for Outreach Productions!
