VERSE 1:
You mean just what You say
When You say don’t be afraid
But every step
Still feels like falling
But You’ve never let me down
And I know whatever tries
To take me out
You hold me now
CHORUS:
Every time I
Sing hallelujah
It all comes flooding back
How much I need Your grace
Teach me to brave the darkness
In the courage of Your heart
And I’ll never be afraid
VERSE 2:
‘Cause I know I’m not alone
And this dark and winding road
Is paved in all
The grace I need
And I know You’ve had my back
How often I’ve lost track
And found Your heart
With open arms
BRIDGE 1:
Open up my eyes
Open up my eyes
I wanna see You
I wanna know You
Open up my eyes
Open up my eyes
Would You light my way
Every step I take is Yours
(I’m not afraid)
Open up my eyes
(I’m not afraid)
Open up my eyes
Would You show me
How much You love me
(I’m not afraid)
Open up my eyes
(I’m not afraid)
Open up my eyes
‘Cause I want nothing else
Till my everything is Yours
BRIDGE 2:
I’m not afraid
(Open up my eyes)
I’m not afraid
(Open up my eyes)
If You are for me
What stands against me
I’m not afraid
(Open up my eyes)
I’m not afraid
(Open up my eyes)
‘Cause if You’ve got my back
Everywhere I go is Yours
I’m not afraid
(Sing hallelujah)
I’m not afraid
(Sing hallelujah)
I know You’re with me
(Sing hallelujah)
You’ve never failed me
(My soul will praise You forever)
I’m not afraid
(Sing hallelujah)
I’m not afraid
(Sing hallelujah)
Whatever else gives way
(Sing hallelujah)
I know You’ll never let me go
(My soul will praise You forever)
BRIDGE 3:
So I will
Sing hallelujah
Sing hallelujah
Sing hallelujah
My soul will praise You forever
Sing hallelujah
Sing hallelujah
Sing hallelujah
I’m gonna praise You forever
BRIDGE 4:
Neither life nor death
Nor any height or depth
Could ever tear my heart
From Your loving arms
(I’m gonna praise You forever)
God my rock my peace
God my certainty
However hard life breaks
I won’t be afraid
(I’m gonna praise You forever)
TAG:
Surely Your goodness and love
Will follow me all the days of my life
Days of my life
