In my own way I'm a believer
in my own way, right or wrong
I don't talk too much about it
it's something I keep working on
I don't have too much to build on
my faith has never been that strong

There's a man there in that building
he's a holy man, they say
he keeps talking about tomorrow
while I keep struggling with today
he preaches hell, fire and brimstone
and heaven seems so far away

I do believe in a higher power
one that loves us, one and all
not someone to solve my problems
or to catch me when I fall
He gave us all a mind to think with
and to know what's right or wrong
He is that inner spirit that keeps us strong

In my own way I'm a believer
but not in voices I can't hear
I believe in a loving Father
one I never have to fear
That I should live life at its fullest
just as long as I am here
