Be Not Afraid - Jeannie C. Riley

Lyrics by Jeannie C. Riley

Tossed to and fro, the disciples were fearing
For their very lives, they were lost out at sea
High winds were raging, waves all around them
Then a voice spoke "Fear not, be at Peace"

He came to them walking, on water and talking,
Though they had known him, yet they were afraid
Yet the Lord in compassion, put His love to action,
For He ceased the winds and He settled the waves

He said, "Be not afraid, it's only the Master.
Calming the storm, removing all harm.
Be of good cheer, your Savior's here now.
Be of good faith, I'm here to stay, be not afraid."

Once my ship was sinking, 'twas the end I was thinking
For there was no lifeboat, 'tween me and the sea.
In despair I cried out in prayer, "Dear God, please save me,"
And then the Lord's sweet hand of love lifted me.

He said, "Be not afraid, it's only the Master.
Calming the storm, removing all harm.
Be of good cheer, your Savior's here now.
Be of good faith, I'm here to stay, be not afraid."

"Be of good faith, I'm here to stay, be not afraid"

Bible Reference: Matt. 14:25-27
