to GOD be the GLORY
~ Victory Over Fear ~
By Deborah Ann
If we’re not to be fearful,
if we’re not to be afraid
then why do we sometimes . . .
feel overwhelmingly dismayed?
If we’re not to despair,
if we’re not to be weak
then why do we sometimes . . .
feel so hopelessly bleak?
If we’re not to be concerned,
if we’re not to worry about today
then why do we sometimes . .
feel so helpless anyway?
If we’re not to be frightened,
if we’re not to have a single care
then why do we sometimes . . .
feel so emotionally threadbare?
If we’re not to be fearful,
if we’re not to be dismayed
then why are we not trembling . . .
with joy, instead of being afraid?
~~~~~~~~~~~
“Fear thou not; for I am with thee:
be not dismayed; for I am thy God:
I will strengthen thee; yea, I will
help thee; yea, I will uphold thee
with the right hand of my righteousness.â€
