Fear Vs Courage

Fear can cripple, but indicate danger
Courage can lead to miraculous things
Comfort and love, reside in the Manger

Fear does exist, look at lessons it brings
So, learn, challenge it, then rest in your peace
Courage can lead to miraculous things

To give into Fear, can make it increase
Courage lifts us above the enemy
So learn, challenge it, then rest in your peace

If you look at it head on, then you will see
Yes, it will lead you to change the despair
Courage lifts us above the enemy

Be kind to yourself, safety you can share
Courage will guide you to what you deserve
Yes, it will lead you to change the despair

Expect the road ahead to have its curve
Fear can cripple, but indicate danger
Courage will guide you to what you deserve
Comfort and love reside in the Manger
