Fearing YourselfOnly Fear Not Trying I ask the Lord to turn my fears around, For it really makes me feel so far down; I'd rather have them as a positive force, That will help me to remain on course; If I fear not then I could not ever fail, Making my success wanting to prevail; I'd rather fear that I might never dare, Discover my full potential somewhere; Why should I fear that I may get hurt? With God on my side to give me comfort; Fear of never experiencing growing pains, Instead of fearing government constrains; Never fear that I might love and lose, Rather fear of love that I never use; Fear not of people laughing at my mistake, Or fearing the risk of having to undertake; Just fear "Oh you of little faith," from God, Fear not of failing in being called a fraud; Fear rather of missing another opportunity, Then try again to increase my capability.
