Steven Stewart Do Not Be Afraid Lyrics

1.
How fast did you fly, oh, Gabriel?
Winging your way to a worn out world?

What was it like as an angel?
Sharing the plan with one shaken girl?
What did you say?

*
"Do not be afraid. Do not be afraid.
You will get through all that's asked of you.
Heaven's child is here. There's no need to fear.
God is bending near and He will stay.
Do not be afraid."

2.
How bright did you shine in that moment
Breaking the news that could finally be told?

How did you reach someone dreaming?
Speaking to Joseph's agonized soul?
Only one thing to say,

*
"Do not be afraid. Do not be afraid.
You will get through all that's asked of you.
Heaven's child is here. There's no need to fear.
God is bending near and He will stay
Do not be afraid."

#
And on that midnight. How loud did you sing?
Filling up the air with a thundering choir.
How did you settle the shepherds?
Replacing fear with a burning desire.

You said,
"Do not be afraid. Do not be afraid.
You will get through all that's asked of you.
Heaven's child is here. There's no room for fear
Peace and goodwill have won the day.
A perfect love will drive your fears away.
Do not be afraid*
