Lyrics: 
Verse 1
We are not afraid
To follow where You lead
Leaving what we know
For what we cannot see
We are not afraid
For we are not alone
And so we'll go with You
Into the unknown
We are not afraid

Verse 2
We are not afraid
To love the way You do
To serve with the same grace
We receive from You
We are not afraid
To look beyond ourselves
And offer hope to those
Who cannot help themselves
We are not afraid
We are not afraid

Chorus
We will be fearless for You
Fearless for You
We will be faithful in all that we do
If we step out on the waves
Or walk through the flames
Whatever You ask us to do
We will be fearless for You

Verse 3
We are not afraid
Though some say we should wait
The cost is just too high
The danger is too great
We are not afraid
To move when You say move
Trusting in Your voice
We will follow You
We are not afraid
We are not afraid

one of the many things I love about the songs Randy Gill has written recently are that they are so incredibly relevant to the challenges of faith, the challenges of following Jesus in a pluralistic culture. This song reminds us we aren't and don't have to be afraid...when some say we should wait, when the waves are turbulent, that we find our confidence in loving like Jesus did. For in doing that, perfect love truly casts out fear...starting with our own fear.
