Be Not Afraid

I was terrified. Broken. Fear Gripped my soul. Too many Losses. Too much pain. Too many peoplle, places and things trying to grip control. God speaks to me through lyrics and this is what he said... Be Not Afraid [Verse 1] The world keeps shouting doom and despair Screens full of panic hanging in the air Bills stack high and sleep runs thin You wonder if you’re strong enough again But there’s a Voice cutting through the storm Not full of rage… not full of scorn Just steady truth through shattered glass “Child, this fire ain’t built to last” [Pre-Chorus] When oceans rise and the shadows crawl When your back’s against the wall He still speaks above it all [Chorus] 🎶 Be not afraid I already walked the grave I already broke the chains You don’t have to carry shame Be not afraid Though the night feels like a war I’ll stand guard outside your door You are Mine forevermore 🎶 [Verse 2] Peter sank trying to walk those waves Thomas doubted scars could save Moses stuttered, David cried Even prophets broke inside Mary stood where hope looked dead Tears and ashes, turning red But Heaven whispered through the pain “Morning’s coming once again” [Pre-Chorus] Every giant falls in time Every mountain starts to climb When you stop and hear His voice [Chorus] 🎶 Be not afraid I already walked the grave I already broke the chains You don’t have to carry shame Be not afraid When anxiety screams your name I still call you fully saved And worthy of My grace 🎶 [Bridge] Joshua heard it before the fight Daniel heard it in lion nights Paul heard it chained in the dark And now it’s echoing through your heart “Fear not… for I am near” “Hold on… I’m already here” “No weapon formed will steal your soul” “I never once let go...” [Breakdown] Not the panic Not the heartbreak Not the sickness Not the mistakes Not depression Not addiction Not the chaos Gets the final decision [Final Chorus] 🎶 Be not afraid Even when your faith feels weak Even when you cannot speak Heaven hears you when you weep Be not afraid The stone was rolled and death was crushed The cross still speaks, the tomb still shouts Love will never cast you out 🎶 [Outro] The battle’s real… But so is God. And He’s never late… Not once.
