The Courage In Your Eyes Lyrics - Michael Bolton

[Tribute to Coretta Scott King] 

[Martin Luther King, Jr. Speaks] 

[Coretta Scott King Speaks] 

Nobody ever warned you 

Nobody could have ever known 

The road that lay before you 

The journey that would lead you home 

How steep was the mountain 

How long was the fight 

In the face of something so wrong 

Somebody had to make it right

[Chorus:] 

The courage in your eyes 

The wisdom in your smile 

The strength within your heart 

To walk the endless mile 

The years have only shined upon your face 

And showered you with dignity and grace 

Like the way you live your life 

And the light you've always shown 

More than the world, more than the world 

Has ever known 

Through the night and the darkest hours 

The promise and the faith you kept 

Brought the fury and the danger 

To your home where your children slept 

You believed in a time for love 

There'd never be a time for hate 

What kind of woman keeps the dream alive 

What kind of dream does a lifetime take

Will shower you with dignity and grace 

The way you've lived your life 

And the light you've always shown 

More than the world, more than this world 

More than the world 

Has ever known
