Lyrics
FEAR NOT
©2005 Neil Ebanks (ASCAP), Kim Ilene McDaniel (BMI), Norris L. Williams (ASCAP)
VERSE 1
What about Mary?
She?s no lady
Not even married
And having a baby
VERSE 2
What about Joe?
Feeling so lost
Dodging the jokes
About his betrothed
CHORUS
Fear not
For the Lord is with you
Be brave
For the Lord has called
Stand up
To the task He gave you
Bow down
And you?ll never fall
VERSE 3
What about Peter?
Feeling so low
Betrayed the Master
Three times in a row
VERSE 4
What about Paul?
Feeling so right
Killed them all
?Til he saw the Light
CHORUS
Fear not
For the Lord is with you
Be brave
For the Lord has called
Stand up
To the task He gave you
Bow down
And you?ll never fall
BRIDGE
No mountain too high
No valley too low
Give your fears
To the One Who knows
No mountain too high
No valley too low
Give your fears
To the One Who knows
One Who knows
One Who knows
CHORUS
Fear not
For the Lord is with you
Be brave
For the Lord has called
Stand up
To the task He gave you
Bow down
And you?ll never fall
