Fear not, for I thy God am here

Verse 1
Fear not, for I thy God am here,
(Jehovah to his servant saith)
My presence shall dispel thy fear,
And fill thy heart with strength of faith:
No longer troubled or dismay’d,
Perceive thy gracious Saviour nigh,
And every moment feel my aid,
And on mine out-stretch’d arm rely.

Verse 2
Why should’st thou fear, when I am thine,
When all I am, I am for thee?
If thou art weak, my strength divine
Is perfect in infirmity:
Without my help who canst not stand
Thee I will never leave alone,
But hold thee up by my right-hand,
But lift thee to my heavenly throne.
