Fear Not, God Is Watching

Representative Text

1 God cares for His children
Where’er they may be,
Upon the bleak mountain
Or on the deep sea;
In mansion or cottage
He keeps them in view;
Fear not, God is watching
With love over you.

2 The bird in the treetop
May rest in His care;
The waves are a cradle,
And Jesus is there;
The chorus may sleep ‘neath
The frost and the dew;
Fear not, God is watching
With love over you.

3 He ever is near you
Tho’ oft you may stray,
His loving eyes follow
You all on the way;
He loves you so dearly,
Be faithful and true;
Fear not, God is watching
With love over you.
