BY FAITH is a band of Christian brothers who have overcome the snares of addiction and homelessness through the Salvation Army A.R.C. in Jacksonville, FL. and had God regenerate them into a group to reach the lost and forgotten with their music of experience, tragedy, and hope of NEW LIFE, through JESUS CHRIST. It's more than music; it's ministry.

Story behind the song

I just got back to the Salvation Amry A.R.C. on day after a homeless outreach by our band, walked into the chapel, and heard a distinct "chorus" in my head,
 (I have not forgotten!)...i picked up a pen and about 2 hours later I had the entire song complete...I didn't have to change a note or word... It was dropped in my lap from Heaven

Lyrics

So many times I told you that I'm sorry. The weeks and months turned into years. Still I return to thing I know that make you worry, til my apology just falls on deaf ears. But I know, 
just as I recover, that your feelings, they don't go away...
Well I have not forgotten, the misery and the pain I put you through. No I have not forgotten, the waywardness and, the selfish things I do. I have not forgotten...I have not forgotten. 
So I'll give to God this burden that I carry, for in Him the load is light enough to bear. From that act I find the healing that He's given; then the pain of mine is gone and disappears. 
For I know, just as I confess them, that all my sins, they all wash away. 
Cause He said; I have just forgotten, they're as far as, the east is from the west. I have just forgotten, now let Me hold you, closer to my breast... I have just forgotten... I have just forgotten...I have just forgotten...I have not forgotten Lord...
I have not forgotten.
