we are timid

we are frightened

we stumble

we are timid

we hear Your call;

but we hesitate

we stand silent

not sharing the message

we fall short

we sin

we do not share Your love

the light You give us

we are timid

we stumble

we do not bear witness

we hide the light

that should shine brightly
