voice of truth

be not afraid neither be dismayed for i am with thee...

oh what i would do to have the faith it takes to climb
out of this boat i'm in on to the crashing waves
to step out of my comfort zone into the realm of the unknown
where jesus is
and he's holding out his hand

but the waves are calling out to me and they laugh at me
reminding me of all the times i've tried before and failed
the waves they keep on telling me time and time again
"boy you'll never win. you'll never win"

but the voice of truth tells me a different story
the voice of truth says "do not be afraid"
the the voice of truth says "this is for my glory"
out of all the voices calling out to me
i will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth.

oh what i would do to have the strength to stand before a giant
with just a sling and a stone
surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors
wishing they'd have had strength to stand

but the giant's calling out my name and he laughs at me
reminding me of all the times i've tried before and failed
the giant keeps on telling me time and time again
"boy, you'll never win. you'll never win"

but the voice of truth tells me a different story
the voice of truth says "do not be afraid"
the voice of truth says "this is for my glory"
out of all the voices calling out to me
i will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

but the stone was just the right size to put the giant on the ground
and the waves they don't seem so high on top of them looking down
i will soar with the wings of eagles
when i stop and listen to the voice of Jesus singing over me

i will listen and believe
i will listen and believe the voice of truth
i will listen and believe
cause Jesus you are the voice of truth
i will listen to you
