*** Chorus
AA straight line eCxists between Dme and the Fgood things.

AAbsolute trust keeps me gCoing in the Dright direFction.
AAny intrusion is Cmet with a Dheart full of the Fgood thing.

AAs the heart finds tChe good thing, the Dfeeling is mFultiplied.
AAdd the will to the Cstrength and it Dequals cFonviction.
AAs we economiseC, effiDciency is Fmultiplied,
ATo the extent I amC determined Dthe result is thFe good thing.
So I say:
GmI have adopted this and mFade it my own:
GmCut back the weakness, reinfForce what is strong.
GmI have adopted this and mFade it my own:
GmCut back the weakness, reinfForce what is strong.
