An Angel Called Faith Poem by John Duffy

(A lone voice calling herself, Faith sings)



Let me purify old memories
To be purged

For I alone
Own all sacred keys

To embrace all vulnerabilities
So you can be reborn

With new responsibilities
A whole new identity to be earned

To set you free
So you can be

The best

For all to see
As your new life runs
To go so far

No more prisoner to tears
To treasure the deep divine

No longer to worship sin
No longer to taste more tears

Just let me be there
When you want me to hear you call

Before you fall

Love infused with honesty
Merged with trust and loyalty

For all the watching world to see

For we are friends
Till the very end

Whatever this sad world dares to bring
Just let me in

To be the reason
As your heart prays for something

Whatever the year or season

For I'm that one thing that has saved endless queens or kings

And countless broken and destitute

The many the rich love to prosecute

Who I listen to even more
Wherever they sing

Will you let me purify old memories
That need to be purged
For I alone own all sacred keys

Just pray to call for me


For my name is Faith and I'll appear to follow

To help you break those chains

To set your soul free
