Alone With My Fears

I’m feeling all alone out here,

Swallowed up by the night,
And I have little hope that dawn
Will bring a cheerful light.
 
I know that fear offers no aid,
Yet fear still fills my mind
With thoughts that offer small comfort
And little peace to find.  
 
It would be so easy to quit,
To give in to my fears
And wallow in my deep despair
Or drown myself in tears.
 
But I will put my trust in You,
Though fear may make me quake,
For You faced more than mortal fear
When You died for my sake.
