I have heard that the phrases like do not be afraid, do not fear, etc are in the Bible 365 times. I know that this is not the case but they are in there quite often. I wrote this when I first connected with Lily about singing my songs. I needed to reread the words this weekend to help with some of my anxieties and worries. I thought I would share, hope you like. Let me know your thoughts.

Don’t Be Afraid

As I begin to take my first step

out into this world on my own

I swear I could hear your breath

I know I heard your song

---

But yet I am so indecisive

Not sure of what I know

I wonder what I have to give

But I hear your voice to go

---

You say don’t be afraid

You say follow me

In my image you are made

You say just believe

---

At times I forget Your voice

At times I am so unsure

But I know this is your choice

For me to walk through this door

---

You made me to sing

You made me to tell your story

My voice is the gift I bring

You made me not to worry

---

You say don’t be afraid

You say follow me

In my image you are made

You say just believe

---

I take this life to give

Like an eagle these wings will soar

You made me want to live

I will take this step through this door

---

I won’t be afraid

I will follow you

In your image I am made

Believing is all I can do

You say don’t be afraid
