[Verse 1]
The ground quakes, my bones shake, I'm afraid
Trouble's coming for me
All my work, everything that I've made
Falling down around me
Now the pain and the shame, I'm afraid
Darkness is upon me
So I run for my life through this day
Into this valley
I forget that You are with me

[Chorus]
O Lord, Your love takes away my fear
O Lord, Your love takes away my fear
Your love is my fortress and my shield
You are here, and I will not fear

[Verse 2]
My disgrace, my mistakes all these years
Coming back to haunt me
Hard to see anything through my tears
So I keep running
"Do not fear, do not fear, do not fear,"
You have always told me
"Do not fear, do not fear, I am here"
Help me to believe so I can see that You are with me

[Chorus]
O Lord, Your love takes away my fear
O Lord, Your love takes away my fear
Your love is my fortress and my shield
You are here, and I will not fear

[Bridge 1]
Even though this valley is as dark as death
Even as I stumble through its shadows
I will fear no evil for my God is near
Perfect love will drive away my fear

[Bridge 2]
Here it comes, shut my eyes, breathe in deep
There's a steady Voice in my ears though they ring
My heart echoes out Your own words as it beats
"My child, do not fear, do not fear, do not fear"
I believe that You are with me
[Chorus]
O Lord, Your love takes away my fear
O Lord, Your love takes away my fear
Your love is my fortress and my shield
You are here, and I will not fear

[Outro]
I will fear no evil for my God is near
Perfect love will drive away my fear
I will fear no evil for my God is near
Perfect love will drive away my fear
