Isaiah 41:10: Fear not, for I thy God am here

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)

Religion

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 outstretch'd arm rely.

Why shouldst 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.
