Be Not Afraid ‘Tis I


 “BE NOT AFRAID, ‘Tis I”

By George Thurlow

July 19, 1999


In the midst of struggle,

Overwhelmed on every hand,

Look up and see the Master 

Calling “Here I am”.


When life gets rough and stormy

And you’re losing strength and will,

Christ will calm your troubled sea

Commanding “Peace be still”.


If afflicted by disease and pain

And you fear that you might die,

Oh hear Jehovah Rapha state

“Be not afraid, ‘tis I”.


He is our “very present help”

For all trouble in our midst,

Coming to uphold us,

Strengthen and assist.
