Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I won't fail you
Calm your heart, I am here
Right behind you
So wipe your tears, oh chosen one
Don't be scared, no need to run
You will see though it's dark
Your heart will blind the night
The two of us, we shall relent
When you shine your light
I shall comfort you so
Fear no evil, as you know:
I shall guide you, I will lead you
Fear no darkness, promised child
Fear no evil, promised child
Don't be scared, sweet promised child
Fear no darkness, no
Like a candle in the night
That's how I found you
That's how I know I will relent
You'll shine our way through.
So hold my hand, I rest assured
You won't fail me
Calm my heart, be my guide
Right behind me
And I shall comfort you so
Fear no evil, as you know:
I shall guide you, I will lead you
Fear no darkness, promised child
Fear no evil, promised child
Don't be scared, sweet promised child
Fear no darkness
(x2)
The lyrics of the song "Fear no Darkness Promised Child" convey a message of comfort, support, and encouragement to a person who is afraid of the dark, probably a child. The singer assures the person that he/she won't fail and that he/she is there to help ease the fear. The singer asks the child to wipe away their tears and not be scared or run away, as they will see through the darkness and their heart will become the light. The singer also promises to light the way and lead them through the darkness, asking them to fear no evil.
The chorus emphasizes the idea of fearlessness and strength, urging the child not to be scared and promising to guide and lead them through the dark. The second verse reiterates the idea of the singer being the rock for the child, and just as the child won't fail the singer, the singer won't fail the child. They will hold each other's hands and support one another as they navigate through the night.
