Story behind the song
I had just watched a couple of different shows about addiction - one was a documentary called "Black Tar Heroin" and the other was a re-run of Touched by an Angel. In Touched by an Angel, Monica was telling the addict that her spirit was still alive and that all she had to do was believe that God could take over her situation and trust Him to help her through her recovery. I was so moved by the two shows, that this song was born in response to them.
Lyrics
Your body may be broken - you’ve sold your very soul;
But your spirit’s still alive now - if you believe, He’ll make you whole.
(CHORUS)
Can you believe? Can you give it to His care?
Call on His blessed name - He’ll show you that He’s there.
If you believe - if you believe - if you believe - can you believe?
You’ve made some real bad choices - now you’re reaping what you’ve sown;
But your spirit’s still alive now - If you believe, He’ll bring you safely home.
(CHORUS)
You’ve lost all hope for tryin’ - failed so many times it’s true;
But your spirit’s still alive now - if you believe, He’ll bring hope back to you.
(CHORUS)
