Islander's Faith


If I were going to an island with nothing to hold

I would take with me, the key to my soul

Although this topic is very controversial

I will  not give you any "bull"

So if I would choose something couldn't live without

I would choose my faith, so please do not pout

You see that without faith, civility is lost

We pay our lives as the ultimate cost

So with the power of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost

About eternal life, I will boast

Yes, with the Islander's faith

My hope of a greater future will be my raft

Carrying me home
