FEAR INTO FAITH

I was afraid of tides and waves

Fear of rushing surge did I have

Until someone came along 

And taught me to walk on the water

I was afraid of diseases

A fear of germs and worms

Until someone came along

He showed me how to hug a leper

I was afraid look into tomorrow

Every next day and what it would hold

Until the One who holds it all

Promised me He planned it all good

I feared death and all that is beyond

The unknown yonder shook me hard

Until someone died for me

And said He'd be waiting for me

I was afraid to believe

Miracles were distant fantasies

Until I read of a withering man

Who was blessed with generations

I was afraid to trust in any

Betrayal and rejections scarred me

Until someone with His precious life

Stole my heart again

I was afraid of love 

All the pain that it held

Until someone who loved me so much

Fixed my broken heart anew

" Oh He chose me

Took away my fears

He erased all the scars

Filled me in with Faith"
