This song is very very moving to anyone who is going through a hard time in life and dealing with self confidence. In the song it says, "Fear he is a liar He will rob your rest Steal your happiness Cast your fear in the fire' Cause fear he is a liar".

This song is such a great reminder that God gives us blessings that we can be very grateful for.
