When I’m Scared

I cannot see, the darkness closes in
this feels like a battle I cannot win
I feel your arms around me in a sweet embrace
you fill me with your never ending mercy and grace

In your presence I feel safe
the world around me loses shape
words of praise are on my lips
the way I feel, I can’t explain it

You lift me up when I’m in despair
thank you God that life’s not fair
a new heart to me you did give
without you I have no reason to live

I will serve you with all I have
though there’s pain I won’t be sad
in the end it will all be worth it
because at your table I will sit
