Deliver Us From Fear

by Akanu Ibaim

O Lord, we beseech thee to deliver us from
the fear of the unknown future; 
the fear of failure; 
the fear of poverty; 
the fear of bereavement; 
the fear of loneliness; 
the fear of sickness and pain; 
the fear of age; and
the fear of death.

Help us, O Father, by thy grace to love and fear thee only, fill our hearts with cheerful courage and loving trust in thee; through our Lord and Master Jesus Christ.
