Shall I, for Fear of Feeble Man
Appears in 106 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Shall I, for fear of feeble man.
The Spirit's course in me restrain?
Or undismayed in deed and word
Be a true witness for the Lord?
Awed by a mortal's frown, shall I
Conceal the word of God most high?
How then before Thee shall I dare
To stand, or how Thine anger bear?
2. Shall I, to soothe th' unholy throng,
Soften Thy truths and smooth my tongue,
To gain earth's gilded toys or flee
The cross, my God, endured by Thee?
What, then, is he whose scorn I dread,
Whose wrath or hate makes me afraid?
A man - an heir of death - a slave
To sin - a bubble on the wave.
3. Yea, let men rage, since Thou wilt spread
Thy shadowy wings around my head,
Since in all pain, Thy tender love.
Will still my sure refreshment prove.
Savior of men, Thy searching eye
Doth all my inmost thoughts descry;
Doth aught on earth my wishes raise,
The world's vain pleasures, or its praise?
4. The love of Christ doth me constrain
To seek the wand'ring souls of men;
With cries, entreaties, tears to save,
To snatch them from the gaping grave.
For this let men revile my name,
No cross I shun, I fear no shame-
All hail reproach! and welcome pain!
Thy terrors only Lord, restrain.
5. My life, my blood, I here present,
If for Thy truth they may be spent;
Fulfil Thy sov'reign counsel, Lord;
Thy will be done, Thy name adored
Give of Thy strength, O God of pow'r
Then let winds blow, or thunders roar,
Thy faithful witness will I be:
'Tis fixed- I can do all through Thee. Used With Tune: [Shall I, for fear of feeble man] Text Sources: Wesley's Collection
