Love and Fear
by My Heart Lies

Lyrics:

The memories inside
Burned like cities in the night
That never turned to ashes
Though they still could feel the flame
And when at last it died
Not a soul was left to find
'Cause everybody fled so they could never feel the pain

I thought I was alone
Wandering for far too long
But I’m not the only one to be abandoned here
I found you in this place
When I wasn’t close to brave
But the only way to love you was to shatter every fear

We only have one shot
We only get one try
Let's show them what we've got
While we still have the daylight
You're worth so much more than anyone will ever know
Your heart is much too beautiful to ever beat alone
I thought I’d tell you so

You're holding every piece
Trying not to let me see
As though you weren't worth the fight to find you in the first
I cannot change your mind
And I wish that I knew why
But I know Christ alone can show you what you're really worth

We only have one shot
We only get one try
Let's show them what we've got
While we still have the daylight
You're worth so much more than anyone will ever know
Your heart is much too beautiful to ever beat alone
I thought I’d tell you so

If all we have is what we're losing here
I'd rather die in love than live in fear
We've only got our shattered souls to give
But Jesus gave His life so we could live
If all we have is what we're losing here
I'd rather die in love than live in fear
We're fading way too fast to have to hide
The weight we carry
All the pain we bury deep inside

We only have one shot
We only get one try
Let's show them what we've got
While we still have the daylight
We only have one shot
We only get one try
Let's show them what we've got
While we still have the daylight
You're worth so much more than anyone will ever know
Your heart is much too beautiful
Just too beautiful to beat alone
