Be not afraid

You shall cross the barren desert,

But you shall not die of thirst.

You shall wander far in safety,

Though you do not know the way.

You shall speak your words to foreign men

And they will understand.

You shall see the face of God and live.

Chorus

Be not afraid, I go before you always.

Come, follow me,

And I will give you rest.

If you pass through raging waters,

In the sea, you shall not drown.

If you walk amid the burning flames,

You shall not be harmed.

If you stand before the power of hell,

And death is at your side.

Know that I am with you through it all.

(Chorus)

Blessed are you poor,

For the kingdom shall be yours

Blest are you, that wept and mourn

For one day you shall laugh

And if wicked men insult

And hate you all because of Me

Blessed, blessed are you!

(Chorus)
