    Story Behind the Song
    This song was a bit of a mystery going into the studio. I wrote the song atleast 3 years ago and it sat unused for a long time. I wasn't quite sure how to approach recording it. Atleast it had a complete drum loop created in pre-production by sampler/mixer Scott Marshall and it sounded great but Aaron(Producer) & I felt we wanted a live drum to also be used in the final recording. In comes drummer JJ Johnson. He throws down an awesome, slick beat that throws the song over the top. And JJ's beat fit so well with the original drum loop, we kept the loop in the chorus to retain some of the original vibe. And then after adding that ever-so sexy trumpet played so amazing by Ephraim Owens, the song turned out exactly as I had hoped, beautiful.

    Lyrics
    FAITH

    I FIND IT IN A STRANGERS SMILE
    A STREET LAMP ON A DARK NIGHT
    I FIND IT IN THE SUN RISING EVERYDAY
    AND THE MOON I MAKE A WISH ON

    I FIND IT EVERY TIME I BREATHE
    AND WHEN I LOOK AT YOU
    IT IS WHERE I CALL HOME
    AND THE ARMS I FEEL THE SAFEST IN

    CHORUS
    FAITH IS ALL I NEED
    TO FORGET THE IMPOSSIBLE IN THIS LIFE
    FAITH IS ALL I NEED
    TO STAY TRUE TO MYSELF IN THIS LIFE

    I FIND IT WHEN I SLEEP AT ALL
    OR WHEN I'M HAPPY FOR NO REASON
    I FIND IT WHEN YOU GREET ME EVERY DAY
    WITH NO EXPECTATIONS

    REPEAT CHORUS

    BRIDGE
    I'VE GOT TO BELIEVE IN SOMETHING
    TO GET ME THROUGH THIS
    SOME GLORIOUS FORGIVING FATE
    THATS UNEXPECTEDLY TRUE
