The Good and the Great

Damien Dempsey

We're bombarded with bad news today
Broken hearted, it would make you that way
Selfless deeds, they go mostly untold
But good outnumbers bad by ten-fold

Most of the war that we see today
It was designed by rich men at play
Just you remember
All of the good, that goes untold now
All around this world

CHORUS
I'll keep my faith in the good and the great
Empathy shines, the redeemer of humankind
I'll keep my faith in the good and the great
Good men die young
We'll never know what they could become

Weapon makers are itching for war
Poor teenagers, they are brainwashed once more
Old cold hawks, they use the fire in young men
To enrich themselves once again
Soldiers return from war in bad states
They once believed but war stole their faith
Soldierman you can make this world new
Let the great spirit love and heal you

CHORUS

I keep my faith in the good and the great
Please keep your faith in the good and the great

Close your eyes, sing a song of freedom
Give your soul a warm embrace
Close your eyes, focus in on someone
Who is kind and full of grace

Close your eyes, close your eyes
Let it all just fall away
