True Believer

ANGEL
All those before you
On their way to understanding
Have pondered the question
And contemplated the very meaning
Of my father's existence
And the essence of his true will
Your knowledge of love
Will grow deeper and deeper still

DEVON (WITH ANGELETTES)
I'll be! (I'll be)
He sees (I see) shadows forming
Maybe (maybe) he'll be (I'll be) one of your own

ANGEL (WITH CHORUS)
Your vision shows what the future holds
The world sees dust, but we shake it to gold
You may be confused but my father knows
You're a true believer!

ANGEL
There once was a wise man
Who built his house on solid rock
It could not be destroyed
Through the quakes and the aftershocks

And there was a fool
Who built his house upon the sand
When the storm came a-callin'
It was leveled and so was the man

ANGELETTES (WITH DEVON)
I'll be!
He sees! (I see)

DEVON
I need a foundation
That can withstand the ways of the world

ANGEL (WITH CHORUS)
Your vision shows what the future holds
The world sees dust, but we shake it to gold
You may be confused but my father knows
You're a true believer!
You're a true believer!

ANGEL (WITH CHORUS)
Imagine a fishnet
Gathering fish of every kind
And when it is loaded
They retrieve it by pulling the lines
They sort out the good ones
And throw away the bad
Like the kingdom of heaven
If you can imagine that!

DEVON
I'll be!
I see the righteous and evil
Some free
Some flee to the fires below

DEVON, ANGEL & CHORUS
My (your) vision shows what the future holds
The world sees dust, but we shake it to gold
I (you) may be confused but our father knows
I'm (you're) a true believer!

DEVON
It's getting clearer

DEVON, ANGEL & CHORUS
I'm (you're) a true believer!

DEVON
I really am!

DEVON, ANGEL & CHORUS
I'm (you're) a true believer!
