Afraid

The world is a scary place

Around every corner
lurks a scary face

It's hard to not be afraid
of a world
that could turn
against you

And I'm scared

I admitted it
I'm scared

Don't want to show it
but I'm scared

It seems like every week
there's a new catastrophe
it really is scary

I know 
I just need to 
let go

I'm trying to get through this
by myself and that won't work

Everytime I try
to live by my own will
I will fail

By myself I will fail

I must surrender
myself to the will of God
he will help me
through it all

No powers of darkness
can rip from his hands

He will hold me
and protect me
from the evils
of the world

I don't have to
be afraid
anymore

Help me Lord
I no longer have to fear

God's almighty power
surrounds me
saves me

I am afraid

I don't have to 
be afraid

Help me Lord
I place my trust in you

If I trust in you
I do not have to be afraid
of the darkness
of the world
