I Will Be

Been caught in the downpour of a rain of stones
I've felt like an exile in the world I'd known
So I sought the shelter of my own soul
And stayed inside, oh...

I found no comfort in placing blame
I saw the hope that lay just beyond the pain
The past is a prison and I won't wear those chains
And I won't hide, oh, no, no, no, no

I will be here, I will be strong
I'll face my fears when the night is long
And still go on
I will be brave, I will be bold
Follow my faith to a higher road
And I'm not there yet
But I will be

I could choose to keep my feet
Upon the beaten path
And never cross the open fields
For that one snake in the grass
But I'd rather risk my heart
Than never get the chance
To find my way, oh...
To find my way

I will be here, I will be strong
I'll face my fears when the night is long
And still go on
I will be brave, I will be bold
Follow my faith to a higher road
And I'm not there yet
But I will be

Ooh, yeah

I will be here, I will be strong
I'll face my fears when the night is long
And still go on
I will be brave, I will be bold
Follow my faith to a higher road, oh...

I will be here, I will be strong
I'll face my fears when the night is long
And still go on
I will be brave, I will be bold
Follow my faith to a higher road

I will be here, I will be strong
I'll face my fears when the night is long
I'll still go on
I will be brave, I will be bold
Follow my faith to a higher road...
