I MUST NOT BE DISMAYED
Don Fortner
(Tune:
Breathe On Me, Breath Of God #164 SM)
I must
not be dismayed,
Though
sorrows press me down;
My God
will give the aid I need,
Though
He may seem to frown.
In darkness and distress
His
love's the same to me,
As in my times of happiness -
Immutable
and free!
Though
much afflicts my mind,
Sorrows
will not destroy,
My
Father will, as He designed,
Turn
sorrows into joy!
Beneath my aching head
My Savior and my Friend
His
everlasting arms has laid,
To comfort and defend.
