In myself I've failed the Lord Then was afraid to try once more That fire in my soul had fled That's when Jesus came and said "My spirit gives the strength you need To raise you up and to succeed And for vision in the night To you, I'll give these words of light" "Fear not my child I'm with you always I feel every pain And every tear I see" "Fear not my child I'm with you always I know how to care For what belongs to me" He said, "My child don't look behind
Discouragement is all you'll find Don't watch the waves that roll the sea But just focus your eyes on me" "And I will make you strong and then Your shattered courage I will mend And if you fall and should get hurt Remember these eternal words" "Fear not my child I'm with you always I feel every pain And every tear I see" "Fear not my child I'm with you always I know how to care For what belongs to me" "I know how to care For what belongs to me"
