In Perfect Love-No Fear

In Perfect Love, No Fear

In the shadow of the valley, where darkness seems to creep,
God’s love surrounds us, His promises we keep.
Through the trials and the pain, in sickness and in health,
His perfect love casts out fear, our greatest wealth.

When the night is darkest, and hope seems far away,
His light shines the brightest, turning night into day.
In the midst of sorrow, when tears begin to fall,
His comforting presence answers every call.

For in His arms, we find our rest, our refuge from the storm,
His love, a shield around us, keeping us from harm.
In happy times, we praise His name, our hearts filled with delight,
In troubled times, we trust His plan, His love our guiding light.

No fear in perfect love, His Word our steadfast guide,
In every season of our lives, He walks close by our side.
Through every trial, every test, His faithfulness is clear,
For God is with us always, in Him we have no fear.

So let us walk in courage, with faith that never sways,
For God’s love is eternal, through all our nights and days.
In sickness, health, in joy, and pain, His love will never cease,
For in His perfect love, we find our strength, our peace.
