6 Verses God's Presence Overcoming Fear

Verse 1

I will not be afraid; I will not be afraid; I will look upward, And travel onward, And not be afraid.

Verse 2

He says He will be with me; He says He will be with me; He goes before me, And is beside me, So I'm not afraid.

Verse 3

His arms are underneath me; His arms are underneath me; His hands uphold me, His love enfolds me, So I'm not afraid.

Verse 4

His Word will stand for ever; His Word will stand for ever; His truth it shall be My shield and buckler, So I'm not afraid.

Verse 5

He will give grace and glory; He will give grace and glory; His cross before me, His banner o'er me, So I'm not afraid.

Verse 6

So we go singing onward; So we go singing onward; We're pressing forward, We're marching upward, To Him unafraid.
