God's Care

Topics: classic

I fear not, my Father, the tempest's loud roar,     Nor dread the huge breakers on the rock-girded shore;     Thy presence is with me, my refuge is near,     With help all-sufficient; oh, why should I fear?     Tho' billows of sorrow should roll o'er my head,     My sun sink in darkness, and joys be all dead,     Thy presence will cheer me, and spectres will flee,     For who can molest me while trusting in thee?
