[Verse 1]
G
When I am shaking and my heart’s pounding
C                      Em          D
You always take me and make me lay down in
G                                    C   Em   D
Peaceful fields where I can clear my head.
C
‘Cause I get so overcome with anxiety
C
Like there’s an enemy living inside of me
       Em
Like a mocker yelling out telling lies to me


[Chorus]
      D
And I don’t feel brave, but I don’t have to be
       C                    G
‘Cause I walked through the valley of shadows
D                Em
And it scared me half to death
    C              G                D     Em              C
But You’re with me everywhere I go --  so I don’t give up yet
              G             D            Em
My fear would surely kill me if I didn’t know the truth
    C                G             D        G
The things that I’m afraid of are afraid of You.

[Verse 2]
G
When my emotions turn against me
    C                Em       D
Not faith nor reason could convince me
     G                                   C  D  Em
That You have patience left to fight for me
          C
When my depression is affecting every ounce of me
C
I can get the medication and the counseling
      Em
Still I can hear the fear calling out to me


[Chorus]
      D
And I don’t feel brave, but I don’t have to be
       C                    G
‘Cause I walked through the valley of shadows
D                Em
And it scared me half to death
    C              G                D     Em              C
But You’re with me everywhere I go --  so I don’t give up yet
              G             D            Em
My fear would surely kill me if I didn’t know the truth
    C                G             D        G
The things that I’m afraid of are afraid of You.


[Bridge]
Em            D                                 C
You prepare a table for me right in front of my worst enemies
Em                   D
You’re as calm and relaxed as can be.
G
There’s no place where the demons won’t find me
    C                             G        D
But just wait ‘til they see who’s standing behind me.


[Chorus 2]
G
I walked through the valley of shadows
    D            Em
And it scared me half to death
    C              G               D   Em                 C
But You’re with me everywhere I go --  so I don’t give up yet
              G             D            Em
My fear would surely kill me if I didn’t know the truth
    C               G              D
The things that I’m afraid of are afraid of You.


[Chorus 2]
G
I walked through the valley of shadows
    D            Em
And it scared me half to death
    C              G               D   Em                 C
But You’re with me everywhere I go --  so I don’t give up yet
              G             D            Em
My fear would surely kill me if I didn’t know the truth
    C               G              D        Em
The things that I’m afraid of are afraid of You.


[Outro]
    C                G             D        N.C
The things that I’m afraid of are afraid of You.
