The Cyber Hymnal ‎#5154

5154. O Love That Casts Out Fear

1. O love that casts out fear,
O love that casts out sin,
Tarry no more without,
But come and dwell within!

2. True sunlight of the soul,
Surround us as we go;
So shall our way be safe,
Our feet no straying know.

3. Great love of God, come in!
Wellspring of heavenly peace;
Thou Living Water, come!
Spring up, and never cease.

4. Love of the living God,
Of Father and of Son;
Love of the Holy Ghost,
Fill thou each needy one.
