I must believe that what's a memory now
Was the only way
To know that all of those you love
Were just stripped away

And now if I'm the one to lead us
Into a brand new day
At peace I must be with the [bad word] [bad word] To [bad word] lead the way

Please God, give me the strength to lead
(It's my charge to keep)
Make the sorrow the fuel I need
(It's my charge to keep)

Please God, give me the strength to lead
(It's my charge to keep)
Make the sorrow the fuel I need
(It's my charge to keep)

And now we must wipe the tears away
Gather up our inner strength
The loss of those we can't replace
Will bring about their fate

And though many lifetimes it will take
To bring justice on our way
We must never falter, we must never fail
This is our charge to keep

Please God, give me the strength to lead
(It's my charge to keep)
Make the sorrow the fuel I need
(It's my charge to keep)

Please God, give me the strength to lead
(It's my charge to keep)
Make the sorrow the fuel I need
(It's my charge to keep)

Please God, give me the strength to lead
(It's my charge to keep)
Make the sorrow the fuel I need
(It's my charge to keep)

Please God, give me the strength to lead
(It's my charge to keep)
Make the sorrow the fuel I need
(It's my charge to keep)
