Fear or Faith


A few wonderful hymns of comfort.


Version #1

Fear hoists its dark harpoon
Anxiety and dread
Cause chaos in a sea of doom
Where faith in God is dead

Faith lifts hope’s beacon high
What tender peace it gives
As believers take up the cry
God is not dead, but lives

Version # 2


Fear hoists its dark harpoon
Waves of dread and despair
Cause chaos in a sea of doom
And anguish without prayer

Faith lifts its Mustard Seed
Hope and peace flood the soul
As Trust grants courage to proceed
For God is in control


© Janet Martin
So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. 
For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

Hebrews 3:6
But Christ is faithful as the Son over God's house.

 And we are His house, if we hold firmly
 to our confidence and the hope of which we boast.

Having faith does not mean we are never afraid.
