He goes to work in a brand new dawn With the early morning sunrise He's got his dream and he's holding on It's getting harder everyday Loves a girl. who speaks her mind Don't always look at life the same way Sharing truth that will heal in time They wanna believe something real. still they're searching They're keepin' the faith in the heartland tonight Time moves on as a fading town they struggle with the changes The stores have closed friends have moved away Now it's hope that sees them through The kids have gone but they'll see them all At the Sunday congregation Sharing dreams truth will heal in time They wanna believe something real still they're searching They're keepin' the faith in the heartland tonight It's words that divide them it's love that defines them They're keepin' the faith in the heartland tonight. In our darkest hour we look to the sky With a silent prayer believe that God's on our side In the land where freedom reigns and where eagles fly They wanna believe something real still they're searching They're keepin' the faith in the heartland tonight It's words that divide them it's love that defines them They're keepin' the faith in the heartland tonight I just wanna believe it Give me something to believe in We all need something to believe in tonight Got faith got dreams believe We're keeping the faith alive
