Fear Says Run, Love Says Come (Vocals)
Lyrics
**Verse 1**
Fear comes calling in the darkness,
Naming everything I lack;
What if sorrow finds my doorway?
What if no one has my back?
What if all I love is taken?
What if I am left alone?
Fear can fill the whole horizon
Till I cannot see my home.
**Chorus**
Fear says, “Run,” but Love says, “Come;”
“You are wanted, you are Mine.”
Fear says judgment waits before me;
Love says mercy stands beside.
I will not let fear define You
I won't let it decide.
**Verse 2**
Fear of failing, fear of losing,
Fear of what tomorrow brings;
Fear of being seen and knowing
What another’s whisper means.
Fear of never being chosen,
Fear of death and being unknown;
Fear can build a thousand prisons
In a heart that feels alone.
**Chorus**
Fear says, “Run,” but Love says, “Come;”
“You are wanted, you are Mine.”
Fear says judgment waits before me;
Love says mercy stands beside.
I will not let fear define You
I won't let it decide.
**Verse 3**
Some have painted You as angry,
Watching closely for a fall;
Holding punishment above us,
Waiting to condemn us all.
But the voice of Jesus calls us,
Not with terror, threat, or shame;
He reveals a loving Father
And invites us by His name.
**Bridge**
I will not settle for obedience
Born from terror or from shame;
You have called me into friendship,
You have called me by my name.
There is something stronger speaking,
Something fear can never do:
Love that leads me into freedom,
Love that draws my heart to You.
**Final Chorus**
Fear says, “Run,” but Love says, “Come;”
“You are wanted, you are Mine.”
Fear says judgment waits before me;
Love says mercy stands beside.
I will not let fear define You
I won't let it decide.
**Outro**
Fear came calling in the darkness,
But it does not have the final word.
Love has spoken through my Father,
And His voice is what I’ve heard:
“Do not fear, My little flock;
You are Mine, and I am near.
It delights Me to give the kingdom—
So come to Me, and do not fear.”
