G Em G Em G Em G Em I will fight will fight with my heart. I will fight, will fight with understanding In my mind the weather never changes Skill overcomes unfavorable conditions Chorus: A C D F A straight line exists between me and the good things. A C D F I have found the line and its direction is known to me. A C D F Absolute trust keeps me going in the right direction A C D F Any intrusion is met with a heart full of the good thing. Try to compare what I am presenting You will meet with much frustration Try to find similar situation You will always find the same solution Chorus: As the heart finds the good thing, the feeling is multiplied Add the will to the strength and it equals conviction As we economize, efficiency is multiplied To the extent I am determined the result is the good thing Gm F I have adopted this and made it my own: Gm F Cut back the weakness, reinforce what is strong. Gm F I have adopted this and made it my own: Gm F Cut back the weakness, reinforce what is strong.
