Faith Over Fear

When fear would paralyze our heart, 
Faith gives us strength to make a start. 
With confidence, we face the storm, 
In God’s embrace, we are reborn.


In times of crisis, God is near, His presence felt, His voice so clear. When human plans begin to fail, In God alone, we must prevail. Our trust in Him, our guiding light, through darkest days and endless night. Faith in God, our steadfast shield, in every battle, never yield. Disobedience brings its toll, A heavy burden on the soul. But faith, a beacon shining bright, transforms our fear into pure might. So seek His guidance, feel His grace, In every trial, find your place. Trust in His control, His loving hand, for in His care, we firmly stand.

In the quiet moments, beauty and joy arise, for God’s presence fills our lives, a wondrous prize. A refuge strong, a shelter in the storm, in His embrace, we find our true form. With faith, we seek His strength and might, in every shadow, He brings forth light. No fear can bind us, no challenge too great, for God is our refuge, our steadfast fate.

His mighty presence, we honor and revere, in His protection, we have no fear. From every trial, He delivers with grace, in His love, we find our place. So let us live with confidence, hearts full of song, for with God as our refuge, we are strong. In His strength, we stand, unwavering and true, God’s presence brings beauty and joy anew.

In the stillness of the night, a voice so clear, Jesus calls, urging us to draw near. Delay not, for time swiftly flies, Ignoring His call, our soul denies. God’s judgment, just and true, Proportionate to what we knew. Witnessing His works, a sacred trust, To respond in faith, we surely must. With knowledge comes a higher call, To stand in faith, lest we fall. Turn from sin, seek His grace, In His forgiveness, find your place.

Repentance now, not a moment to waste, For in His love, we are embraced. Let us heed His call, sincere and true, In God’s light, our lives renew.
Let the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart find favor before you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. - Psalm 19:15

Prayer

What lies within this fragile heart that beats and bleeds and breaks apart. What secrets does it hold inside that I have tried so hard to hide. What dreams and hopes and fears and doubts that fill my mind and make me shout. What passions and desires and joys and pains that stir my soul and course my veins. What words and thoughts and feelings and deeds that shape my life and guide my needs. What truths and lies and rights and wrongs that form my voice and sing my songs. What is this heart that you can see that only you can set me free. What is this heart that I conceal that only you can make me reveal.
