Fear not their Fear

Everybody’s talking

Everybody’s got a warning

Everybody’s sure they know

What’s coming in the morning

Everybody’s watching

Every headline rolling by

Every shadow growing larger

Underneath a worried sky

But I hear a different voice

Calling through the noise

Saying don’t let fear decide

Who you are inside

Everybody’s running

Everybody’s shouting

Everybody’s sure the sky is falling here

But I know where I stand

I know whose hand I’m holding

I won’t fear their fear

No, I won’t fear their fear

Everybody’s got a headline

Everybody’s got a take

Everybody’s got an answer

Everybody’s wide awake

Scrolling through another crisis

Breaking news at half past ten

If I listened to them all

I’d be afraid to breathe again

One says run

One says hide

One says trust what’s on your side

One says panic

One says fight

Everybody’s selling fear tonight

I won’t build my life on rumors

I won’t build my hope on sand

When the winds begin to gather

I know where I’m gonna stand

There is peace beyond the chaos

There is truth beyond the crowd

There is still a quiet whisper

Speaking louder than the loud

Everybody’s running

Everybody’s shouting

Everybody’s sure the sky is falling here

But I know where I stand

I know whose hand I’m holding

I won’t fear their fear

No, I won’t fear their fear

They said everybody’s doing it

Everybody’s on that road

Everybody’s chasing after

Whatever everybody’s told

Everybody wants a shortcut

Everybody wants a sign

Everybody wants tomorrow

Without changing their mind

But the narrow path gets lonely

When you’re walking it alone

When the crowd is heading one way

And you’re headed toward the throne

They can call me crazy

They can say I’ve lost my way

But I’d rather stand with heaven

Than be popular today

When the whole world says run

I will stand

When the whole world says fear

I will trust

When the whole world says follow

I will stand apart

And wait upon the Lord

Should not a people seek their God

Should not a people seek their God

Not the crowd

Not the noise

Not the fear

Not the lies

Should not a people seek their God

Everybody’s running

Everybody’s shouting

Everybody’s sure the sky is falling here

But I know where I stand

I know whose hand I’m holding

I won’t fear their fear

No, I won’t fear their fear

Fear not their fear

Fear not their fear

Fear not their fear

The Lord is near

They can keep the panic

They can keep the noise

I’m listening for a different voice

Fear not their fear

Fear not their fear

When the crowd runs one way

I’ll stand right here

Fear not their fear

Fear not their fear

I know where I stand

I know whose hand I’m holding

And I won’t fear their fear
