Текст песни: By the Faith + перевод

Soundbyte from the Warner Bros. movie Book of Eli:

Solara: Well, how do you know that you’re walking in the right direction?

Eli: I walk by faith, not by sight

Solara: What does that mean?

Eli: It means that you know something even if you don’t know something

Solara: That doesn’t make any sense

Eli: It doesn’t have to make sense. It’s faith, it’s faith. It’s the flower of

light in the field of darkness that’s giving me the strength to carry on.

You understand?

I just wanna please you

So I live by the faith

No matter what it look like

I believe in what You say

You tell me it’s OK

Then I believe I’m straight

I got an expected end

Shorty, I am on my way

Yeah, defeat is in my rear-view

And they ain’t trynna stay

Screaming «death, I don’t fear you!»

Die another day

As for now, I got a job to do

And I ain’t trynna stray

Yeah I’m living by the faith

Yeah I’m living by the faith

Imagine skydiving

With no parachute

And all you got is the word of god and a jumpsuit

Fighting thoughts from the enemy trynna stunt you

Trynna have you question «is God gon come through?»

Your heart accelerate and you getting close to the ground

All the while, not realizing you walking on clouds

The devils quiet

Heavens a riot

Cause both parties recognizing you getting it now

Then all the sudden, you enjoying that wind in your face

And your demeanor shows the signs that you entered the place

(where?)

Of distance from worry

Where sin is at bay

Many miles from your fears

Nothing stands in your way

No matter the problem

Everything is OK

I got it, you get it

So amazing His grace

Nothings higher than Him

Might get carried away

Watch you land on your feet

Now your standing on faith

Yeah

Yo, it’s impossible to please him without it

So consequently it’s a sin if I continue to doubt it

Believe you me I hit the streets and show this world that I’m 'bout it

Hands on the sick, and pray the prayers that have the demons get routed

I’m moving mountains with a mustard seed

His power’s astounding

Surrounding me

Confound the wise with something they see as weak

But Captain Deezy fed the multitudes

So why should I be

Afraid if I don’t see the money?

When it’s plain as can see

It’s a test and I’m gon pass it for that masters degree

Or a bachelors at least, no?

I’m married to the carrier of all I can be

That’s why I watch what I eat

Out the abundance of the heart, that’s what you’ll properly speak (Lord!)

And in His Word, ain’t no way that i can possibly be defeated by

Tell Him «I do believe»

I ain’t the smartest apple

But I am a part of His tree

I’m the head, not the tail

I hope that my God is pleased
