When I am shaking
And my heart's pounding
You always take me
Make me lie down in
Peaceful fields where
I can clear my head
'Cause I get so overcome with anxiety
That there's an enemy living inside of me
Like a mocker yelling out telling lies to me
And I don't feel brave but I don't have to be
'Cause
I walked through the valley of shadows
And it scared me half to death
But You're with me ev'rywhere I go
So I won't give up yet
My fears would surely kill me
If I didn't know the truth
The things that I'm afraid of
Are afraid of You
When my emotions turn against me
Not faith nor reason could convince me that
You have patience left to fight for me
And my depression has affected every ounce of me
I can get the medication and the counseling
Still I can hear the fear calling out to me
And I don't feel brave but I don't have to be
'Cause
I walked through the valley of shadows
And it scared me half to death
But You're with me ev'rywhere I go
So I won't give up yet
My fears would surely kill me
If I didn't know the truth
The things that I'm afraid of
Are afraid of You
You prepare a table for me
Right in front of my worst enemies
You're as calm and relaxed as can be
There's no place where
My demons can't find me but
Just wait 'til they see
Who's standing behind me
I walked through the valley of shadows
And it scared me half to death
But You're with me ev'rywhere I go
So I won't give up yet
My fears would surely kill me
If I didn't know the truth
The things that I'm afraid of
Are afraid of You
The things that I'm afraid of
Are afraid of You
The things that I'm afraid of
Are afraid of You
