Fear Is a Liar

Fear is a prison for all without faith,
a chain that can hold you tied forever,
Fear is a robber is a ghastly wraith,
a dark shadow of a muddy river.

Fear is a cold whisper into the night;
You cannot do that, hide, or better run.
You are not worthy. For you, there's no light.
Fear is a despot that will hide the sun.

Fear is a liar. Never trust his tongue.
Fear is a tight cage where your soul can die,
the hopeless song that ever has been sung,
Have courage. Please don't listen to his lie.

Embrace The Truth, The Light. The night is gone.
Cast on Jesus all your fears and march on!
