Darlene Zschech's song 'I Will Not Fear' is a declaration of trust in God's presence during difficult times. The lyrics express confidence that God is near in darkness, fire, and storm, and that focusing on Him brings peace and safety. Drawing on the biblical image of walking on water, the song encourages believers to keep their eyes on Jesus rather than their circumstances. It emphasizes surrender, hope in God's promises, and the assurance that His love covers and protects. The repeated refrain reinforces the choice to not fear because God is with us.

I will not fear the dark
'Cause I know that where You are
Every enemy
Will have to bother Thee
I'm letting down my guard
Trusting with all my heart
Surrender to Your plans
I'm safe within your hands
'Cause I will not feel the fire
Knowing You're right by my side
I will not feel the wind
Though it's blowing strong again
I know that I was made
To walk upon the waves
As long as my eyes are set
On You
You're strong when I am weak
In chaos to appease
You tell me to draw close
And I won't walk alone
And I'll follow where You lead
Your voices drawing me
Deep into Your heart
I'm covered by Your love
And I will not feel the fire
Knowing You're right by my side
I will not feel the wind
Though it's blowing strong again
I know that I was made
To walk upon the waves
As long as my eyes are set
On You
And I will not feel the fire
Knowing You're right by my side
I will not feel the wind
Though it's blowing strong again
I know that I was made
To walk upon the waves
As long as my eyes are set
On You
Oh, my eyes are set on You
Jesus, my heart is fixed on You
Mighty God, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Mmh
I will place my hope in every word You've spoken
Beyond what I can see, I know you're surrounding me
I will place my hope in every word You've spoken
Beyond what I can see, I know you're surrounding me
I will place my hope in every word You've spoken
Beyond what I can see, I know you're surrounding me
I will place my hope in every word You've spoken
Beyond what I can see, I know you're surrounding me
And I will not feel the fire
Knowing You're right by my side
I will not feel the wind
Though it's blowing strong again
I know that I was made
To walk upon the waves
As long as my eyes are set
On You
I will not feel the fire
Knowing You're right by my side
I will not feel the wind
Though it's blowing strong again
I know that I was made
To walk upon the waves
As long as my eyes are set
On You
As long as my eyes are set
On You, Jesus
As long as my eyes are set
On You
