Be strong and take courage
Do not fear or be dismayed
For the Lord will go before you
And His light will show the way
So be strong and take courage
Do not fear or be dismayed
For the One who lives within you
Will be strong in you today
Why don’t you give Him all of your fears
Why don’t you let Him dry all of your tears
He knows He’s been through pain before
And He knows all that you’ve been looking for
Nothing can take you out of His hand
Nothing can face you that you can’t command
I know that always you will be
In His love in His power you will be free
For the One who lives within you
Will be strong in you today
