by your side
I and the Universe Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see the fear that is in your eyes
And the cost of this sacrifice
You could escape from this and stay alive
But now you wonder if you'll survive
Even though you walk through the valley
Of the shadow of death do not fear
He is by your side
Even when you're terrified

In the darkest night
You will be alright
I see the fear that you try to hide
Wish I could take it and make it mine
But God chose you to be the one to stand
You're a part of His master plan
Even though you walk through the valley
Of the shadow of death do not fear
He is by your side
Even when you're terrified

In the darkest night
You will be alright
