Courage, dear heart

Courage, dear heart
Take courage, my child.
Courage, dear heart,
Take courage, tonight.

I know right now it all seems so dark
Your hope is wavering
Trust in your Creator's heart
God's Love is never-ending

Courage, dear heart
Take courage, my child.
Courage, dear heart,
Take courage, tonight.

Rest in your Abba’s arms,
Let the One who made you see you through.
God's Love will never fail,
Love is always there for you.

When the night’s endless hours go on and on
And you want to give in and you want to give up
Fight back, fight the pain, fight the dark, fight the lies
with the truth: there is One always fighting for you

Listen close,
Love is with you in your darkest hour
Listen close, you can hear Love say

Courage, dear heart
Take courage, my child.
Courage, dear heart,
Take courage, tonight.

I'm still tweaking the above song lyrics but the chorus is inspired by one of my favorite scene's in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader which I wrote about here.
