Tune: "Eventide" ("Abide with Me" UMH#700)

1. Fear not, my child, as you walk down life’s way;
I’m by your side through joy or through dismay.
Hear now my voice as I call out your name
For I shall cleanse your soul, forgive all blame.

2. When you pass through great trials you will learn
Waters won’t flood you, nor will fires burn.
Youths will grow weary and will fainting be
Yet you’ll go far if you but trust in me.

3. Precious are you, and honored in my eyes;
On wings of eagles you’ll soar to the skies!
Peace be with you wherever you may go;
All of your life, my love will ever-flow!
