Be Not Afraid

 2   -2'     3    3   3  3   3  3 
You shall cross the barren desert, 

 2  -2'    3    3   3  -3'   3 
but you shall not die of thirst 

-3'  -3    4  4   4  4   4  4 
You shall wander far in safety 

  -3'  -3  4   4    4   4  -3 
though you do not know the way 

 4   -4     5    5     5   5   5  5    -5 
You shall speak your words in foreign lands 

 5  -4   5   -4 4   -3 
and all will understand 

 3    4    4  -4   5   5  -4   4   -4  
You shall see the face of God and live 


2   3  -3'  3 
Be not afraid 

4 -4 -5 -5   5  -4  4 
I go before you always 

 4    -2' -3' 3   4 -4  4    4   -3   4 
Come, follow me, and I will give you rest 


2  -2'   3      3     3  3   3  3 
If you pass through raging waters  

2  -2'  3   3    3   -3'   3 
in the sea you shall not drown 

-3' -3  4   4  4  4   4   4    4 
If you walk amid the burning flames, 

-3'   -3   4  4   -3 
you shall not be harmed 

4  -4    5   5  5    5    5    5  -5 
If you stand before the pow'r of hell 

 5   -4   5  -4  4    -3 
and death is at your side, 

 3    4   4 -4  5    5    -4    4  -4 
know that I am with you through it all. 


2   3  -3'  3 
Be not afraid 

4 -4 -5 -5   5  -4  4 
I go before you always 

 4    -2' -3' 3   4 -4  4    4   -3   4 
Come, follow me, and I will give you rest 


 2  -2'   3   3    3 
Blessed are your poor, 

 2  -2'  3   3    3   -3'   3 
for the kingdom shall be theirs 

 -3'  -3   4   4    4    4    4 
Blest are you that weep and mourn, 

-3'  -3   4   4    4    -3 
for one day you shall laugh 

 4  -4  5  5     5     5  5   5   5   -5 
And if wicked tongues insult and hate you 

-4   5  -4  4  -3 
all because of me, 

 3   4     5 -4   4  -4 
blessed, blessed are you! 

2   3  -3'  3 
Be not afraid 

4 -4 -5 -5   5  -4  4 
I go before you always 

 4    -2' -3' 3   4 -4  4    4   -3   4 
Come, follow me, and I will give you rest 


 4 -4  4    4   -3   4 
And I will give you rest
