Hello Fear 
Before you sit down there’s something I need to explain 
Since you’re here 
I think I should tell you since we last talked things have changed 
See I’m tired of being broken-hearted 
So I made a list and you’re on it 
All my hopes and my dreams You took from me 
I want those back before you leave 

Hello Fear 
I knew I would see you, You have a hard time letting go 
See these tears,Take a good look cuz, soon they wont fall anymore 
God’s healing my hurful places 
That seat that was yours now is taken 
I’m no longer afraid,See I’m better this way 
And one more thing before you leave 

Never again will I love you 
My heart it refuses to be your home 
No longer your prisoner 
Today I remember 
Apart from you is where I belong 

And never again will I trust you 
I’m tired of fighting it’s been way too long 
No longer your prisoner 
Today I remember 
Who I was and now it’s gone 
They’re gone 

Hello Grace 
It feels like forever, I thought my chance with you was gone 
See your face, it reminds me of mercy 
And please let me say I was wrong 
Never knew your touch was endless 
How you never run dry of forgiveness 
Didn’t know how bad it was, was afraid just because 
Sorry fear, grace took your place 

-Kirk Franklin
