I believe in mistakes and accidents
That the nature of life is chaos and confusion
That [bad word] of law and order may not stand
I should be and be not afraid to reach for heaven

I may think that I know the [bad word] hearts needs
My pride may bring me low, unable to see
No closer than yesterday, but tomorrow I may stand
Be and be not afraid to reach for heaven

I'll see the black car cavalcade, lights on in the morn [bad word] fast and far away, [bad word] without stopping
Till heart and feet fail or until I can stand
Be and be not afraid
Be and be not afraid
Be and be not afraid to reach for heaven
