       C#         G#           A#m    C#  C#7
If you call out loud, will it get in-side?
            F#                 C#             D#m     F#  
Through the heart of your sur-render; to your alibis?
            C#        G#            A#m    C#   C#7
And you can say the words, like you under-stand,
         F#             C#                    E          D#m  F#  
But, the power's in be-lieving; so give your-self a chance.

               F#                       B  F#  
'Cos you can; climb the highest mountain,
C#                    G#m7   F#  
Swim the deepest sea, hee.
F#                    C#
All you need, is the will to win it and a,
D#7            F#  
little self-esteem.

Chorus:
             B    F#      C#
So keep the faith; don't let nobody turn you 'round.
B                        F#
You gotta know when it's good to go;
             C#
To get your dreams up off the ground.
          B           F#                  A                C#  
Keep the faith, baby, yeah, because it's just a matter of time,
             E
Before your confidence will win out.
    B            F#               G#m7       C#    F#
Be-lieve in your-self, no matter what it's gon' take,
B            F#                F#              C#   F#    C#
 You can be a winner, but you got to keep the faith.
 F#             C#              F#    C#
Gon' keep it, brother, you got it.

And when ya think of trust
Does it lead you home
To a place that you only dream of
When you're all alone?
And you can go by the feel
'Stead of circumstance
But the power's in believing
So give yourself a chance

I know that you can
Sail across the water
Float across the sky, high
Any road that you take will get you there
If you'll only try

Chorus:
So keep the faith (Oh)
Don't let nobody take you down, brother
Just keep your eyes on the prize
And your feet flat on the ground
So keep the faith, baby, yeah
Because it's just a matter of time
Before your confidence will win out
I told my brother how to do the thing right
Lift up your head and show the world ya got pride
Go for what you want
Don't let 'em get in your way
You can be better, but you got to keep the faith
Gon' keep it brother
You got it

C#                        G#
 I know that keepin' the faith,
       F7    A#m
means never giving up on love,
         A                              F#  
But the power that love has to make it right;
            G#  
makes it, makes it right.

Chorus:
So keep the faith (Go)
Don't let nobody turn you 'round brother
You got to know when it's good to go
To get your dreams up off the ground
So keep the faith, baby, yeah
Because it's just a matter of time
Before your confidence will win out

And better stand up and act like you wanna do right
Don't play the fool for the rest of your life
Work on it brother and you'll make it someday
Go for what you want and don't forget the faith
Look at yourself and what ya doin' right now
Stand back a minute just to check yourself out
Straighten out your life and how you're livin' each day
Get yourself together 'cause you got to keep the faith

(Keep the faith) Go on
Don't let nobody take you down, brother (Keep the faith)
Just keep your eyes on the prize
And your feet flat on the ground
Keep the faith, baby, yeah
Because it's just a matter of time
Before your confidence will win out

Lift up your mind
Before your mind gets blown
Some things in life
You best just leave them alone
Go for what you want
Don't let it get in your way
You can make it happen
But ya got ta keep the faith

(Keep the faith) Go'n keep it brother
You got to keep the faith
Yeah keep the faith (Keep the faith)
Go'n keep it sister (Keep the faith)
You got to keep the faith
Now, now

I showed my brotha
How to do the thing right
Lift up your head
And show the world you got pride
Go for what you want (Keep the faith)
Don't let 'em get in your way
You can be a winner
If you keep'a the faith
Straighten out yourself (Keep your faith)
And get your mind on track (Oh yeah)
Dust off your butt
And get your self-respect back
You've known me too long (Oh yeah)
To know that I don't play (Oh yeah)
Take it like you wanna
But you got to keep the faith

(Keep the faith) Go on
Don't let nobody take you down
Just keep your eyes on the prize (Keep the faith)
And get your feet back on the ground
So keep the faith, baby, yeah (Keep the faith)
Because it's just a matter of time
Before your confidence will win out
But til' that day
I say you've got to keep the faith (Hmmm)
