lyrics

4. Willie Scott and the Birmingham Spirituals - Keep Your Faith to the Sky

Master told me one day
I’d learn to say,
tell them keep your faith to the sky
(keep your faith to the sky)
tell them keep your faith to the sky
(keep your faith to the sky)

There was a woman
In the Bible days we was just a long long time.
And she had an issue with blood
12 long years, 12 long years
Oh yes she did
She went to the doctor,
she found out the doctor couldn’t do no good,
Lord have mercy.
When she heard about Jesus
He was passing by
yes he was.
She knew she reached out
she knew if she’d touch Jesus she’ll be clean
Somebody told that woman
to keep your faith to the sky
(keep your faith to the sky)
told that woman keep your faith to the sky
(keep your faith to the sky)
keep your faith to the sky
Do you hear that the woman she was made clean

Which of thee say?
There was a man who had been laying a long time
Lord have mercy
He was laying
Thank you Jesus

Have you heard about Jesus?
He was angered men carrying, scaring or robbing people

He and John reached their hands out
And call him if you in need
He can be here right now

Keep your faith to the sky
(keep your faith to the sky)
Told that man keep your faith to the sky
(keep your faith to the sky)
Say it one more time
(keep your faith to the sky)
The man was made whole.
Sometime when I feel down
I can reach out and moan.

Good evening ladies and gentleman,
this is Reverend Randy Wilson
and the one and only Birmingham Spirituals
of Birmingham, Alabama,
and we’d just like to say
to all of those people out there.
It doesn’t matter how involved you might be in the world.
Don’t worry about it
just keep looking up,
and just keeping your face towards the sky.
For God is able,
if you would just only do this.

Keep your faith to the sky
(keep your faith to the sky)
If you believe
