Be Not Afraid
Recorded by Daniel O'Donnell
Written by Felix Mendelssohn

D7        G                D7
You shall cross the barren desert
        C         D7     G
But you shall not die of thirst
          C
You shall wander far in safety
           Am              D7
Though you do not know the way
          G          B7       Em      Dm
You shall speak your words in foreign lands
    C        A7   D7
And all will understand
G         Em      A7              D7
You shall see the face of God and live

G             C
Be not afraid
  D7   G
I go before you always
C           Bm Em
Come follow me
    C      D7       G
And I will give you rest

D7     G                   D7
If you pass through raging waters
       Em      D7        G
In the sea you shall not drown
       C
If you walk amid the burning flames
Am               D7
You shall not be harmed
       G       B7       Em       Dm
If you stand before the power of hell
    C        A7      D7
And death is at your side
G         Em   Am                  D7
Know that I am with you through it all

Repeat #2

                D7
Blessed are the poor 
        Em      D7       G
For the kingdom shall be theirs
C
Blessed are you that weep and mourn 
    Am                D7
For one day you shall laugh
       G      B7    Em       Dm
And if wicked men insult and hate you 
C     A7       D7
All because of Me 
G    Em  Am          D7
Blessed  blessed are you

Repeat #2
