Keep you safe

Quiet your heart
It’s just a dream
Go back to sleep

I’ll be right here
I’ll stay awake as long as you need me
To slay all the dragons
And keep out the monsters
I’m watching over you

My love is a light
Driving away all of your fear
So don’t be afraid
Remember I made a promise to keep you safe

You’ll have your own battles to fight
When you are older

You’ll find yourself frozen inside
But always remember
If you feel alone
Facing the giants
And you don’t know
What to do

My love is a light
Driving away all of your fear
So don’t be afraid
Remember I made a promise to keep you safe

"I sought the Lord and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears." Ps. 34:4

"I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength." Phil. 4:13

Sometimes, I think, I'd like to go back to being a little girl again. To wear feet pajamas and have Daddy rubbing Vicks on my chest and Mommy brushing out my tangly hair and then to have them holding my hands while they tucked me in bed and prayed with me. It'd be nice to go to sleep thinking about riding my tricycle the next day and playing "blocks and people" and watching Sesame Street.

But as it is, I'm all grown up now, and so many things are running through my mind and tempting me to stress out every day. But the Lord gives grace and He is holding me in His arms. He's made a promise to keep me safe. He wants me to trust Him on that. So, okay, Lord. I'll seek to trust you more...and wait for you to deliver me from all my fears.
