I was raised on the good book
and taught to believe.
Faith was instilled in my soul.
It was better to give
than to receive.
I was bound for the streets
paved with gold.
Then I lost my way,
forgot how to pray.
Just a backslider out in the cold.
He didn't give up on me
the Lord set me free
and faith came back to me

Faith came back to me.
I was blind but now I can see.
I was wand'ring in sin
so aimlessly
and faith came back to me

Now I spend my days
singing His praise.
Thanks, mom and daddy,
for raisin' me right.
That strong foundation
in the right direction
helps me make it through the darkest night.

Faith came back to me.
I was blind but now I can see.
I was wand'ring in sin
so aimlessly
and faith came back to me.

When his children are taught wrong from right
they will always come back to his side.

And faith came back to me.
I was blind but now I can see.
I called out to thee
Oh Lord, hear my plea
and faith came back to me.

Like in old Galilee
He showed His mercy
and faith came back to me.
