Lyrics
A MAN OF FAITH
By Bernardo Barreto

He was a man of faith
His legs were very weak
All he had was just a pen
And a ceiling leak

He was a man of faith

His memory faded
His pen was at rest
The water kept running
Like the pain in his chest

He was a man of faith

Once he was a soldier
Before he was a priest
Then he caught the fever
In the Middle East 

Yet, he was a man of faith

(Solo)

His Name was unknown
But he wrote many songs
Some about love
Some about being alone

He was a man of faith

He turned into dust
One morning in May
The Angel of Mercy
Took him away

He was a man of faith

He lives in a kingdom
Of flowers and gold
His body collapsed
But he flew with his soul

He was a man of faith

Bernardo... I FAVED this even before hearing it just on the strength of the lyrics alone.
Now that I've listened I know of a certainty I made the right choice. Awesome tune.
Tasty guitar licks throughout help tell the tale. Did I say "tasty"? Tasty and outstanding...
BRAVO!!!

Blues but with a tiny touch of latin. Like the reverb on the guitar.
