The Christian Sunday School Hymnal ‎#97

97. Be not Afraid

1 Fear not the gloom of the midnight,
Dread not the storm of the sea;
'Tis I who am coming to save thee,
'Tis I!art thou trusting in me?

Refrain:
Trusting in thee, yes, trusting in thee,
I'll doubt thee no more, my Redeemer;
Yes, trusting in thee, yes, trusting in thee,
I'll ever be trusting in thee.

2 Fear not the gloom of the furnace,
The Master is speaking to thee;
'Tis I who am cooling the foot-steps,
'Tis I!art thou trusting in me? [Refrain]

3 Heed not the wrath of the tempter,
My presence thy shelter shall be;
'Tis I who am keeping thy spirit,
'Tis I!art thou trusting in me? [Refrain]

4 Fear not the chill of the valley,
For death but a shadow shall be;
My rod and my staff shall support thee,
'Tis I!keep on trusting in me. [Refrain]
