The Darkness Won’t Beat Me
Verse 1
Oh,
The boat will rock
The storm will roll
Fear gets loud
When it reaches the soul
The sky went black
The night leaned in
My hands got weak
But You held them
I felt the rain
I heard the doubt
I watched my courage
Start running out
But somewhere deep
Beneath the waves
A quiet voice
Was calling my name
Chorus
I will not sink
I will not break
You are the calm
When my heart shakes
I’m not alone
Out on this sea
You’re in the storm
And You’re holding me
So let it rise
Let thunder speak
The night can try
But it won’t have me
I know You’re near
I still believe
The darkness won’t beat me
Verse 2
The wind can scream
The waters climb
I’ve seen fear
Look me dead in the eyes
But then You move
Without a sound
And every wave
Starts bowing down
Not with a rush
Not with a show
Just holy peace
Where panic grows
And I don’t need
The storm to leave
To know my God
Is here with me
Chorus
I will not sink
I will not break
You are the calm
When my heart shakes
I’m not alone
Out on this sea
You’re in the storm
And You’re holding me
So let it rise
Let thunder speak
The night can try
But it won’t have me
I know You’re near
I still believe
The darkness won’t beat me
Bridge
When my faith is tired
You are still faithful
When my knees hit the floor
You are still able
When the night gets heavy
You don’t let go
You walk on the waters
I’m scared to row
So I’ll breathe again
I’ll lift my eyes
The storm is loud
But You’re still Christ
Final Chorus
I will not sink
I will not break
You are the calm
When my heart shakes
I’m not alone
Out on this sea
You’re in the storm
And You’re holding me
So let it rise
Let thunder speak
The night can try
But it won’t have me
I know You’re near
I still believe
The darkness won’t beat me
Outro
The boat may rock
The storm may roll
But You are peace
Inside my soul
The darkness won’t beat me
No, the darkness won’t beat me
