Fear's fight

Life untamed, wild and crass
Ever daunting some wish it would pass
Giants rise to stand in your way
They're hidden thought to destroy your day

Fear hides in darkness, shifting in boundless plight
All powerful, overwhelming and just too much
It grips your soul and holds you tight
Never intended for you as such

Fear is a thief, who slashes against your hope
It's momentum has you swaying upon the sea
It sends your heart crashing, too much to cope
Robbing and stealing, it wants all of the

Even Peter lost sight and was submerged
His eyes wavered and he chose wrong
Through darkness a grip plunged through, hands merged
Lifted him soaked, to sing a new song

The compassion of Christ will never fail
He breaks through to refresh even though you are stale
He does so for his glory so that you may hail
"God delivered me from my fear and made me prevail"
