Faithful Too

(album: Real Life Conversations - 1988)

It's a brand new day and the sun is shining bright;
Looks like it's gonna be the very best day of my life.
So I jump out of bed into a world of opportunities;
I gotta get moving, no time to get down on my knees.
Then the telephone rings;
It's the voice of tragedy.
No I suddenly find
The time to get down on my knees.

[Chorus]
I say, "I love You",
I always look to You when trouble calls my name;
But if I'm gonna say, "I love You",
I've gotta be faithful too .
The true test of my love will be
Did I follow you consistently,
Through the good and bad;
I want to be faithful too.

Talk is cheap;
Some words come a dozen for a dime.
But a real life conversation
Will take some precious time,
And if I give my all,
Lord that's the least that I can do,
Compared to all the faithfulness
I have found in You.
So if tragedy calls,
Or if everything goes my way,
I want to be found
Faithful to you every day.

[Chorus]
