All I Know Is I'm Afraid

(album: Time Well Spent - 2021)

Oh God, I'm so afraid
Of things that I don't know
I used to be so sure
So strong, now I can't go
Into my secret place
Where all my hope has gone
I'm running out of faith
And courage, I have none
Floating above the air
My worry rooting deep
Hopelessly paralyzed
By fear that follows me to sleep
Please teach me how to walk
So blindly in the dark
My lesson is to surrender
Start trusting with my heart

Now I don't know
For how long
I get to live
This life of mine
But all I know
Is write in song
Hymn of my heart
And anthem of my mind
And hope that belief
Catches up to me
When it's time

Used to be filled with doubt
For how could I believe
A power I can't see
That's overwhelming me
But then I'd catch myself
How else do I explain
When I'd be whispering
A prayer with my pain

Now I don't know
For how long
I get to live
This life of mine
But all I know
Is write in song
Hymn of my heart
And anthem of my mind
And hope that belief
Catches up to me
When it's time

Floating above the air
Worry rooting deep
Taking part of many
Heavier things I keep

Floating above the air
Worry rooting deep
Taking part of many
Heavier things I keep

Floating above the air
Worry rooting deep
Taking part of many
Heavier things I keep

Floating above the air
Worry rooting deep
Taking part of many
Heavier things I keep

Now I don't know
For how long
I get to live
This life of mine
But all I know
Is write in song
Hymn of my heart
And anthem of my mind
And I'll be just fine
