about

The importance of a belief in something beyond ourselves. Be it religion or the mysteries that science has yet to discover.

lyrics

I've been down so long
i don't know which ways up
from the fount of misfortune
I've filled up my cup
but I stand up tall
face it all
with going gets rough
I don't get discouraged
i know deep down things will be great
Its just a matter of faith
Fides est responsio (Faith has the answers)


no one can tell you
what your faith's about
religion or science
we all scream and shout
about something much bigger
than we all can comprehend
fighting your brother for this
seems like such a waste
when its just a matter of faith
Fides est responsio (Faith has the answers)

Whether a God in the sky
keeps an all seeing eye
on us all down on Earth
Or the boffins reveal
the Higgs boson field
for whatever its worth
they both started with faith

Believe as pagans or in Reagan or the big spaghetti monster
in Vishnu, or the Buddha or whomever's at your altar
in Jesus or in Allah, the Kabbalah or pure science
as long as you have faith it doesn't matter where you find it

Fides est responsio (Faith has the answers)

there's so much around us
we don't understand
we bicker and banter
with our heads in the sand
lets come together and
make some sense of it all
if we want to survive
we must forgo all this hate
and have a wee bit of faith
its just a matter of faith
We all need need some faith
its just a matter of fait
