No Fear
The faithful do not fear those things that cannot hurt the soul
They know there is but One alone Who makes a Christian whole
They know no matter what may come the outcome's sure to be
A life with joy and so much more for all eternity
The faithful do not follow those who have no time for God
They do not linger in the path where other folks may trod
For they have their encounter every morning with their
Friend Who's promised to be with them in a life that will not end
But will be all they've hoped for all their hearts could ever dream
As with the saints in glory they will stand as the redeemed
Who for the Price of Righteousness were counted one with Him
Who gave His all upon the cross to buy the faults of them
Who truly were not worthy never could be on their own
Without the blood of Jesus Christ that only can atone
For every sin and every failing of the chosen here
Who by the grace of Him that's able has their record clear
Of every sin that they've committed through their faith alone
That grasps upon the grace from heaven God said was their own
No price to pay or way to earn it as they cannot be
Accounted worthy but through Jesus of eternity
Where daily they will come to worship Him Who is their own
And walk together one in number from His royal throne
To gardens in the land of Eden where the saints will shine
And all the past of pain and anguish will not come to mind
For there there'll be no record of one failing from the past
One single mark or scar of damage in that Home at last
Except for those upon our Saviour that won't go away
That will remind us of the damage for which He did pay
To give to us the glory promised while He lingered here
As patrons of His Kingdom's story that will be made clear
That started long before creation when just He could see
The path that He would take forever for iniquity
That was our own not bought or borrowed but by what we'd do
With every line and mark and detail that our Saviour knew
But still God's love had greater power than the Price He'd pay
To give to us the living option in His perfect Way
John 14:1-6; 1 John 4:10-19
