1.
You shall cross the barren
desert, but you shall not die of
thirst.
You shall wander far in safety
though you do not know the
way.
You shall speak your words in
foreign lands and all will
understand.
You shall see the face of God
and live.
R.
Be not afraid.
I go before you always.
Come follow me, and
I will give you rest.
2.
If you pass through raging
waters in the sea, you shall not
drown.
If you walk amid the burning
flames, you shall not be
harmed.
If you stand before the powr of
hell and death is at your side,
know that
I am with you through it all.
3.
Blessed are your poor, for the
kingdom shall be theirs.
Blest are you that weep and
mourn, for one day you shall
laugh.
And if wicked tongues insult
and hate you all because of me,
blessed, blessed are you!
