Be not afraid, saith God the Lord. Be not afraid, thy help is near ... Be not afraid, Be not afraid, saith God the Lord. Be not afraid, thy help is near ... God, the Lord thy God, saith unto thee, Be not afraid. Though thousands languish ad fall beside thee, and tens of thousands around thee perish, ... yet still it shall not come nigh thee ... Be not afraid, thy help is near, for He is near, thy help is near ... Be not afraid, saith God the Lord. Words: Music: (Elijah) Felix Mendelssohn
