Safety

Lord, please stay close to me tonight
Hold me in Your arms
I am shaking, scared of life
Keep me safe from harm
I don't know who to turn to
With what I feel inside
A panic so pervasive
It makes me want to hide
I'm anxious things will happen
Though what, I do not know
I can't keep it all together
I just want to go
But it's time for me to face them
All these nameless fears
Time for me to lean on You
The way I have these years
It might not get better
These emotions have control
But in the end I long to feel
Your peace deep in my soul
