AWAY with our fears,

By A Collection of Hymns


      5 5 5 11, 5 5 5 11.
      1 AWAY with our fears,
      Our troubles and tears!
      The Spirit is come,
      The witness of Jesus returned to his home;
      The pledge of our Lord
      To his heaven restored
      Is sent from the sky,
      And tells us our Head is exalted on high.

      2 Our Advocate there
      By his blood and his prayer
      The gift hath obtained,
      For us he hath prayed, and the Comforter gained;
      Our glorified Head
      His Spirit hath shed,
      With his people to stay,
      And never again will he take him away.

      3 Our heavenly guide
      With us shall abide,
      His comforts impart,
      And set up his kingdom of love in the heart.
      The heart that believes
      His kingdom receives,
      His power and his peace,
      His life, and his joy's everlasting increase.

      4 The presence divine
      Doth inwardly shine,
      The Shechinah shall rest
      On all our assemblies, and glow in our breast;
      By day and by night
      The pillar of light
      Our steps shall attend,
      And convoy us safe to our prosperous end.

      5 Then let us rejoice
      In heart and in voice,
      Our leader pursue,
      And shout as we travel the wilderness through;
      With the Spirit remove
      To Zion above,
      Triumphant arise,
      And walk with our God, till we fly to the skies.
