Be Not Afraid

Author: Alfred J. Hough Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #471 First Line: Come weal, come woe where'er we go Refrain First Line: Child, be not, be not afraid Lyrics: 1. Come weal, come woe where’er we go, God is not far away; He holds the stormy winds that blow, And molds the golden day. The darkest night to Him is light, And thro’ the shine or shade, He speaks in tones of tender might, My child, be not afraid. Refrain Child, be not, be not afraid; Child, be not, be not afraid The darkest night to Him is light, And thro’ the shine or shade, Child, be not, be not afraid; Child, be not, be not afraid He speaks in tones of tender might, My child, be not afraid. 2. Tho’ clouds may veil the stars that sail O’er boundless seas of space, And lights along all shores may fail, God will not hide His face; But sweetly whispers while His hands Upon His own are laid, Lo! at thy side thy Father stands, My child, be not afraid. [Refrain] 3. Thro’ changing years, in joy and tears, The changeless One abides, And safe the soul from doubt and fears That in His bosom hides. On noisy street, in still retreat, Thro’ vales of deepest shade, That voice is heard with accents sweet, My child, be not afraid. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Come weal, come woe where'er we go]

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Person Name: Charles Hutchinson Gabriel Composer of "[Come weal, come woe where'er we go]" in The Cyber Hymnal Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman
