It's difficult to reconcile faith without trust or belief, but it appears you are characterizing faith as action without meaning. The unknown is never really completely unknown - as it's epitomized by stepping into a void. Who's chasm was it in the first place? We are familiar with the archetypal principles, which do not change. We must make a place for the new somehow - as Ra says, in the 'roots of mind' and this it would seem, does involve trust and belief.
When we take that act of faith and look back, there was a bridge. How was the bridge constructed? Faith did not build that bridge.
