Open the Fear Door
Song About Building Courage
Laszlo Slomovits

  Listen to this song.
  Listen to the instrumental sing-along accompaniment.

This song is available on "Rock Solid Kids."

When something makes me nervous, fearful or shy
And I just want to turn away and not even try
I talk to myself right from the start,
I say, “Have courage!” I say, “Take heart!”
I remind myself I’ve been courageous before,
There’s a great strength inside me, it’s my very own core,
And then here is what I do…

I open the Fear Door, and step on through.
I open the Fear Door — just past it, what a view!
Yes, I may be frightened, but I won’t let it fool me.
Sure I may be scared, but I won’t let it rule me.
I open the Fear Door — yes I do,
And step on through.

When fear keeps me locked up in a tiny room,.....

.....

Courage doesn’t mean being foolish or dumb,
There are things that the bravest back away from......

.....

You can call it being spirited, fearless and bold,.....

.....

Now don’t let me give you a scare!
That person is always there —
Yes, it’s you! And it’s the same for me too. Yes, we can…

Open the Fear Door, and step on through.
Open the Fear Door — just past it, what a view!
Yes, we may be frightened, but we won’t let it fool us.
Sure we may be scared, but we won’t let it rule us.
We’ll open the Fear Door — yes, we will,
And step on through.
We’ll step on through.
Yes, step on through.
Just step on through.
Yes, step on through.
Just step on through!

 

This song is available on "Rock Solid Kids."
