CCLXXXVIII. Fear not

1 Ye trembling souls, dismiss your fears
Be mercy all your theme;
Mercy, which like a river flow
In one continued stream.

2 Fear not the powers of earth and hell,
God will these powers restrain;
His mighty arm their rage repel,
And make their efforts vain.

3 Fear not the want of outward good,
He will for his provide;
Grant them supplies of daily food,
And give them heaven beside.

4 Fear not that he will e'er forsake,
Or leave His work undone;
He's faithful to his promises,
And faithful to his son.

5 Fear not the terrors of the grave,
Or death's tremendous sting;
He will form endless wrath preserve,
To endless glory bring.

6 You in his wisdom, power and grace,
May confidently trust;
His wisdom guides, his power protects,
His grace rewards the just.
