Do not Fear




Do not fear to hope
Though the wicked rage and rise
Our God sees not as we see
Success is not the prize

Do not fear to hope
For though the night be long
The raise shall not be to the swift
The fight not to the strong

Look to God when victory seems out of justice sight
Look to God whose mighty hand brought forth the day from the chaos of the night

Do not fear to hope
Though the wicked rage and rise
Our God sees not as we see
Success is not the prize

Do not fear to hope
For though the night be long
The raise shall not be to the swift
The fight not to the strong

Look to God when reason fails and terror reigns in the night
Look upon the crucified and see beyond into Easter's stunning light

Do not fear to hope
Though the wicked rage and rise
Our God sees not as we see
Success is not the prize

Do not fear to hope
For though the night be long
The raise shall not be to the swift
The fight not to the strong

Hope is for a pilgrim people
Searching for a promise land
Hope is like a rose in winter
Or an open hand
Celebrate the light of morning
While working in the dark and cold
It gather us together
To share what we've been told

Do not fear to hope
Though the wicked rage and rise
Our God sees not as we see
Success is not the prize

Do not fear to hope
For though the night be long
The raise shall not be to the swift
The fight not to the strong
