lyrics

I would tell you to stay
These fears that haunt you can be broken down by faith
Don't let the demons in your mind carry you away
Amidst the shadows he still holds on

Yeah, stay
This beating heart that weighs down your soul will fade
All of the things you always think but never say
Are like vapors in the wind

Stay with me
Don't let the anxiousness that sweeps your mind
Keep you alone
Don't hide with your fears in the dark

Yeah you can't sleep
And I can't see how it's going to end
But i'm here 'cause you were always there with me in the dark

Yeah, stay
Grace and peace alone will keep your frost at bay
Believe the things you never think but they always say
Amidst your creeping doubts just hold on

Yeah, stay
Though your head it spins your God he still remains
And his goodness endures despite your fear and pain
Amidst your broken doubts just hold on

Stay with me
Don't let the loneliness that wanders in
Keep you alone
Don't hide with your fears in the dark

Yeah you can't sleep
And I can't see how it's going to end
But i'm here 'cause you were always there with me in the dark
