Fear

Darkness,
Shadows my life
Covering me.
Sorrow.
Staring 
Into the depth of my
Soul.
Ripping apart
What hope remains?
Father help,

Release me; free me
From the despair that
Follows fear.

Shine your mighty 
Light
 Drive away 
The darkness 
Removing the doubt 
That calls me to forget.

Fear, you have lost.
No longer shall 
You reign in my life

I have surrendered
God now leads my step.
He guides me with 
Sure footing.
