Intro
Verse 1
I have this confidence because
I've seen the faithfulness
of God
The still inside the storm
The promise of the shore
I trust the power of Your word
Enough to seek Your Kingdom
first
Beyond the barren place
Beyond the ocean waves
I've seen the faithfulness
of God
The still inside the storm
The promise of the shore
I trust the power of Your word
Enough to seek Your Kingdom
first
Beyond the barren place
Beyond the ocean waves
Chorus 1
When I walk through the waters
I won't be overcome
When I go through the rivers
I will not be drowned
My God will make a way
So I am not afraid
I won't be overcome
When I go through the rivers
I will not be drowned
My God will make a way
So I am not afraid
Verse 2
You keep the promises You make
There isn't one that is delayed
So I will not lose heart, here
I will lift my arms
And start to sing into the
night
My praise will call the sun
to rise
Declare the battle won
Declare that it is done
There isn't one that is delayed
So I will not lose heart, here
I will lift my arms
And start to sing into the
night
My praise will call the sun
to rise
Declare the battle won
Declare that it is done
Chorus 2
When I walk through the waters
I won't be overcome
When I go through the rivers
I will not be drowned
My God will make a way
So I am not afraid
When I am in the fire
I will not feel the flame
I'll stand before the giant
Declaring victory
My God will make a way
So I am not afraid
I won't be overcome
When I go through the rivers
I will not be drowned
My God will make a way
So I am not afraid
When I am in the fire
I will not feel the flame
I'll stand before the giant
Declaring victory
My God will make a way
So I am not afraid

Not Afraid - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]
The song “Not Afraid” by Jesus Culture is a powerful reminder of the faithfulness of God and His promises. The lyrics remind us that no matter what we face, God will make a way and we do not need to be afraid. This is a truth that is echoed throughout the Bible. In Isaiah 43:2, God says, “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.” This verse is a beautiful reminder that God is always with us and will never leave us. He will protect us and provide a way for us to overcome any obstacle.
The chorus of the song also references the story of Joshua and the Israelites crossing the Jordan River. In Joshua 3:17, it says, “The priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord stopped in the middle of the Jordan and stood on dry ground, while all Israel passed by until the whole nation had completed the crossing on dry ground.” This is a powerful reminder that God will make a way for us, even when it seems impossible. He will provide a way for us to cross any river or walk through any fire.
The song “Not Afraid” is a powerful reminder that God is always with us and will never leave us. He will provide a way for us to overcome any obstacle and we do not need to be afraid. We can trust in His faithfulness and His promises.
