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.
Be not afraid,
I go before you always,
Come follow Me,
and I shall give you rest.
If you pass through raging waters
in the sea, you shall not drown.
If you walk amidst the burning flames,
you shall not be harmed.
If you stand before the pow'r of hell
and death is at your side,
know that I am with you, through it all
Be not afraid,
I go before you always,
Come follow Me,
and I shall give you rest.
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 men insult and hate you, all because of Me,
blessed, blessed are you!
Be not afraid,
I go before you always,
Come follow Me,
and I shall give you rest.

My husband recently passed after a lo g battle with cancer and this song was played at his funeral mass. It gives me hope and strength as I begin my grieving journey. I know he is with our Lord and is guiding my way.

This hymn has been running through my mind for the past 2 weeks. But, I didn't really know all of the words. When I found this on line, it really gave me peace. My husband was recently diagnosed with cancer and now I know why God chose this song for me. Amen.

Praise the Lord! I am so glad to have found this hymn I sang in youth choir so long ago as I go through the most intense spiritual battles of my life. Thank you Jesus for your peace and joy that is not based on my circumstances but on who you are and what you did for me at the cross!

I know this hymn - and hearing it for the first time! I am reminded of my missing family. They've passed on! I'm reminded as well that they're always going to be there! I am alone but yet I am not! They've gone on - one day I shall see them again! One day and twenty years or so! I will be there with them. 😢
