I REFUSE TO BE AFRAID
(1)
THE PEACE I TOOK FOR GRANTED CRUMBLED SUDDENLY.
THE WORLD FOREVER CHANGED BEFORE MY EYES.
AND SOMEWHERE IN THE RUMBLE OF ALL THAT USED TO BE,
MY SHATTERED TRUST AND INNOCENCE NOW LIES,
BUT THE FEAR THAT FOUND ME
AND KNOCKED ME TO MY KNEES
ONLY CAUSED ME TO DRAW CLOSER
TO THE CHRIST WHO LIVES IN ME.
Chorus
SO LET THE WINDS OF TERROR BLOW.
LET THEM RAGE AGAINST MY SOUL.
I REFUSE TO BE AFRAID, I REFUSE TO BE AFRAID.
I WILL STAND AND I WILL FIGHT
IN THE POWER OF GOD’S MIGHT.
I REFUSE TO BE AFRAID. I REFUSE TO BE AFRAID.
FOR THE GOD OF ALL THE UNIVERSE
IS MY FATHER AND MY FRIEND,
MY SHELTER, AND PROTECTOR.
HE HAS PROMISED TO DEFEND.
AND BECAUSE OF WHO HE IS, I AM BRAVE.
I REFUSE TO BE AFRAID. I REFUSE TO BE AFRAID.
(2)
SIFTING THROUGH THE ASHES OF ALL MY BROKEN DREAMS.
THE THINGS I LOVE NOW SCATTERED ON THE GROUND.
I CRY TO GOD FOR ANSWERS, OH TELL ME WHAT IT MEANS.
BUT THERE WITHIN THE RUINS I HAVE FOUND
THAT THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS
THE ONLY THING THAT STAYS IS MY FAITH IN GOD
ALMIGHTY THAT NO FEAR CAN TAKE AWAY.

I WILL STAND AND I WILL FIGHT
IN THE POWER OF GOD’S MIGHT.
I REFUSE ------------, I REFUSE TO BE AFRAID.
FOR THE GOD OF ALL THE UNIVERSE
IS MY FATHER AND MY FRIEND,
MY SHELTER, AND PROTECTOR. HE HAS PROMISED TO DEFEND.
