It Is I Be Not Afraid


There was a ship once rolling gently
Over the sea the Saviour made;
All the disciples of His were in it as together this time they stayed
But the Great Captain was not with them,
On the shore He was delayed,
They saw a man come walking on the waters saying:
It's I be not afraid! Oh! it is I be not afraid

CHORUS
Oh! it is I be not afraid
This is the reply that the Saviour made
Though the night was dark and the wind was blowing
Still with the ship the disciples stayed,
They saw a man Come walking on the waters saying It is I be not afraid!

Aren't you glad you claim a Saviour who can calm the wind and sea,
While this is the same Dear Jesus who said:
Come unto me So let's go to the ship's salvation one that sin has never swayed
Jesus is calling to us gently saying: It^s I be not afraid!

CHORUS
Oh! it is I be not afraid
This is the reply that the Saviour made
Though the night was dark and the wind was blowing
Still with the ship the disciples stayed,
They saw a man Come walking on the waters saying It is I be not afraid!
