| Could you believe in a dream when I tell you that it’s true?
|
| Could you believe precious friend of mine?
|
| And would you believe when it seems you are glad with what you do
|
| Give you courage to carry, give you courage to carry
|
| Courage to carry your spirit up on high
|
| Just to carry your spirit up on high
|
| I saw people in trouble, yes heard the angels cry
|
| Now don’t tamper with my children, no, no, made the devil fly
|
| Spent the night with David, he taught me what to say
|
| I was looking for a smooth stone when I heard him pray
|
| Could you believe in a dream when I tell you that it’s true?
|
| And could you believe precious friend of mine?
|
| And would you believe when it seems you are glad with what you do
|
| It’ll give you the courage to carry, the courage to carry
|
| Courage to carry your freedom up on high
|
| Go 'head and carry your spirit up on high
|
| Oh, I could sing at times and reasons
|
| Reason to lay your burden softly down
|
| Kings and Prophets did for freedom
|
| Precious dreams imprisoned underground
|
| Well, I’ve got this song that I’ll sing
|
| And I’ll make the mountains ring
|
| Tell my mama that I am homeward bound
|
| Could you believe in a dream when I tell you that it’s true?
|
| And could you believe precious, precious friend of mine?
|
| Would you believe when it seems you are glad with what you do
|
| It will give you courage to carry, give you courage to carry up
|
| Just to carry your spirit up on high, Lord
|
| Just to carry your spirit up on high, up on high
|
| Oh yeah, can carry up on, carry
|
| Oh I make this promise, my Lord, I’m gonna carry
|
| Ooh, and I promise to look for that little light
|
| Little bit of light, gonna look for that light
|
| Gonna look for that light bit of light when my heart is in trouble
|
| Oh and I make this promise to look for that light
|
| Little bit of light when my man is worried
|
| You see the same night that brought the children through, yes it is
|
| And it’s the same night that brings the spirit through
|
| He’ll believe, gonna believe, I’m gonna believe
|
| Don’t you believe, I’m gonna believe, I’m gonna believe
|
| Yes, I do believe, oh yes, I do believe
|
| I’m going to believe, I’m gonna believe y’all
|
| And I gotta believe, I gotta believe, I gotta believe
|
| My better taught me to believe
|
| My mama taught me to believe
|
| And I believe, and I believe, I believe, I believe
|
| Just believe, just believe, just believe, just believe
|
| Just believe, just believe, just believe, just believe
|
| Just believe, just believe, just believe, just believe, oh my friend
|
| Try it out one more time, try it out my son
|
| And you’ll learn how to believe |
