lyrics
THE MYSTIC LAW (Walsh)
Well you've got to have faith
Faith will keep you going
In your struggle and strife day to day life
It will carry you
Yeah you've got to have faith
Life is made for living
When things get rough and you've had enough
See what faith can do
Yeah you've got to have faith
Well you've got to study hard
To understand the teaching
No prayer's too small no dream's too tall
For the Mystic Law
Yeah you've got to study hard
Practice what you're preaching
Your sorrow and pain is never in vain
You can make it through
Yeah you've got to study hard
CHORUS
Days get crazy nights get worse
Life is a play you can't rehearse
You're up you're down you're in reverse
The Mystic Law is the absolute law of the universe
Well you've got to have hope
Hope will make you stronger
The Mystic Law is eternal hope
And confidence
Yeah you've got to have hope
The Mystic Law is in you
The World Tribune had a picture of you
An Ambassador of joy
Yeah you've got to have hope
CHORUS

Well you’ve got to have faith
Well you've got to have faith
Faith will keep you going
In your struggle and strife day to day life
It will carry you
Yeah you've got to have faith
Life is made for living
When things get rough and you've had enough
See what faith can do
Yeah you've got to have faith
Well you've got to study hard
To understand the teaching
No prayer's too small no dream's too tall
For the Mystic Law
Yeah you've got to study hard
Practice what you're preaching
Your sorrow and pain is never in vain
You can make it through
Yeah you've got to study hard

Days get crazy nights get worse
Life is a play you can't rehearse
You're up you're down you're in reverse
The Mystic Law is the absolute law of the universe
Well you've got to have hope
Hope will make you stronger
The Mystic Law is eternal hope
And confidence
Yeah you've got to have hope
The Mystic Law is in you
