Fearing SuccessTrusting God to Succeed God makes my fears do an about face, Making them a plus and rebuilds my faith; Good in my life until fear not of failing, And know that my success is prevailing; But fear that I rather might never dare, To discover my potential without despair; Fear not that failure may cause me to hurt, Rather fear that I may never loose my shirt; Or experience growing pains from within, That would stop me from thinking to begin; Fear not that you might love and loose, Rather fear being a wallflower is an excuse; Fear not that people laugh at your mistake, Rather fear of a chance you didn't take; Fear not that I might fail by trying again, Rather fear of no experience to attain; Fear not if you stutter when you talk, Rather fear of grumbling as you squawk; Fear not of results that may be unjust, Rather fear God saying you have no trust.
