Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns from the Most Approved Authors #CLXXVI (1799) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Away, my unbelieving fear Lyrics: 1 Away, my unbelieving fear;
Fear shall in me no more take place;
Tho' Jesus doth not yet appear;
He hides the brightness of his face:
2 Still I will never let him go,
Nor basely to the tempter yield;
His strength will lead triumphing thro'
I never will give up the field.
3 Altho' the vine its fruit deny,
Altho' the olive yield no oil,
The withering fig-tree droop and die,
The field illude the tiller's toil;
4 The empty stall no herd afford,
And perish all the bleating race,
Yet I will triumph in the Lord,
The God of my salvation praise.
