Avalon's 'Don't Be Afraid' is a gentle Christian ballad that speaks directly to someone struggling with fear, doubt, and emotional pain. The song reassures listeners that God is present even when they cannot see Him, and it encourages them to reach out and trust His love. It acknowledges the difficulty of believing during hard times and offers hope that healing and strength will come. The lyrics use imagery of walls, tears, and a tumbling world to depict human struggle, while emphasizing God's desire to comfort and restore. The overall message is one of faith, reassurance, and the transformative power of divine love.

I know it's hard to believe
When your eyes just can't see
So lean on Me
I have not disappeared
And I can see you from here
Tears are blinding you from the truth
Oh, I'm right here in front of you
Won't you reach out and take My hand
Don't be afraid of love
Don't be afraid of love
I'll know you'll find your strength again
Don't lose your faith
Don't be afraid
There are questions you face
With no answers in place
So just believe
For tomorrow will come
And with it, the morning sun
Oh, I hope you will let Me in
That's when the healing begins
Won't you reach out and take My hand
Don't be afraid of love
Don't be afraid of love
I'll know you'll find your strength again
Don't lose your faith
Don't be afraid
There's a wall surrounding you
Love alone can make it through
You're caught up in the circle you drew
And when your world starts tumblin' down
I'll pick the pieces off the ground
I wanna be there for you
Won't you reach out and take My hand
Don't be afraid of love
Don't be afraid of love
I'll know you'll find your strength again
Don't lose your faith
Don't be afraid
