Darkened caverns cannot
scare me, nor can shadows in my mind,
I no longer live with hauntings of the things I left behind,
I quit running from the serpent and the demons at my door,
Darkened caverns are reminders of the things I knew before.
Darkened caverns are
the small things that I used to think were large,
I quit running from the mem'ry of the times they were in
charge,
And the fear that used to haunt me is the fear I now ignore,
Darkened caverns are reminders of the things I knew
before.
Darkened caverns cannot
hurt me; they are just an empty shell,
Though I once thought they would lead me to the very brink of
Hell,
Now I laugh and scorn the darkness, for my God has barred the
door,
Darkened caverns are reminders of the things I knew
before.
Darkened caverns are
behind me; lighted hallways are ahead,
I no longer see my failures; I see only God instead,
For His Word has lit my footsteps as He shows me what's in
store,
Darkened caverns, distant mem'ries of the things I knew
before.
