Set me free from fear.

 Set Me Free from Fear

Set me free from fear—the chains that bind my heart,

The anxious thoughts that tear my peace apart.

The dread of what may come, the shadow of the night,

The whispers that say "you're not strong enough to fight."

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7)

Set me free from fear of failure and of shame,

From the terror of being forgotten or losing my name.

From the fear of tomorrow and all it may hold,

From the stories of worry my imagination has told.

When I am afraid, I put my trust in You. (Psalm 56:3)

Set me free from fear of man and his opinion,

From the trap of seeking approval in every dominion.

For if You are for me, who can stand against?

Your love is my fortress, my strong defense.

The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid? (Psalm 27:1)

Set me free from fear of death's dark door,

For You have walked through it and risen evermore.

The grave has no victory, the tomb has no sting—

In Your resurrection, my soul can sing.

Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting? (1 Corinthians 15:55)

So I receive Your freedom now.

I renounce the fear that tried to hold me down.

I trade my trembling for Your perfect peace,

And in Your love, my fears will cease.

There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear. (1 John 4:18)

Set me free, Lord. I am Yours.

No more fear. No more closed doors.

I walk in freedom, bold and true—

Because Your love has seen me through.

Amen.
