Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: Hymns and Devotions for Daily Worship #257 (2024) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: When waves of trouble round me swell Lyrics: 1. When waves of trouble round me swell,
My soul is not dismayed'
I hear a voice I know full well:
'Tis I, be not afraid;
'Tis I, be not afraid.
2. When black the threat'ning skies appear,
And storms my path invade,
Those accents tranquilize each fear:
'Tis I, be not afraid;
'Tis I, be not afraid.
3. There is a gulf that must be crossed;
Savior, be near to aid!
Whisper, when my frail boat is tossed,
'Tis I, be not afraid;
'Tis I, be not afraid.
4. There is a dark and fearful vale,
Death hides within its shade;
Oh, say, when flesh and heart shall fail,
'Tis I, be not afraid;
'Tis I, be not afraid. Topics: Ordinary Time Week 14 Scripture: Matthew 14:26-27 Languages: English Tune Title: DOVE OF PEACE
