It’s dark in here and I’m afraid
I say and pull the covers up over my head

“Watch your step, hurry, don’t delay
Better be careful or you’ll trigger the light
Hidden in landmines that would explode and cause fright
For while you say you want light, you really cherish the dark
You like being afraid and trembling in terror”

And then I sit up and realize I’m fueling insanity
I’d rather skip through the day with my Friend eternity
For in truth I am light and there’s nothing to fear
So I’ll forgive and be free, and entrust all cares to God
Because everywhere I am, God is also there
And I choose to remember today, in His steps I would follow
Rather than spend time crouched low in a cower to wallow

“But you promised to hold my hand in sickness and death. To keep your eyes shut tight and always to listen. To trust only me as your guide in the dark. While I rush ahead and leave you alone, to hide and whisper of terror and frail flesh and bone.”

Into stillness I rest
Awareness in my heart
Where Gods Voice does live
And we have never been apart
