I will not be afraid Lyrics
I will not be afraid;
I will not be afraid;
I will look upward,
And travel onward,
And not be afraid.
He says He will be with me;
He says He will be with me;
He goes before me,
And is beside me,
So I'm not afraid.
His arms are underneath me;
His arms are underneath me;
His hand upholds me,
His love enfolds me,
So I'm not afraid.
His Word will stand for ever;
His Word will stand for ever;
His truth it shall be
My shield and buckler,
So I'm not afraid.
He will give grace and glory;
He will give grace and glory;
His cross before me,
His banner o'er me,
So I'm not afraid.
So we go singing onward;
So we go singing onward;
We're pressing forward,
We're marching upward,
To Him unafraid.

This song was a product of the persecution during the war with Japan in the 1930's.
It is credited to Ellis Govan (1935).
