VERSE 1
Standing at the portal
Of the op'ning year,
Words of comfort meet us,
Hushing ev'ry fear;
Spoken thro' the silence
By our Father's voice,
Tender, strong, and faithful,
Making us rejoice.
CHORUS
Onward, then, and fear not,
Children of the day!
For His Word shall never,
Never pass away!
VERSE 2
I, the Lord, am with thee,
Be thou not afraid!
I will help and strengthen,
Be thou not dismayed!
Yea, I will uphold thee
With My own right hand;
Thou art called and chosen
In My sight to stand.
CHORUS
Onward, then, and fear not,
Children of the day!
For His Word shall never,
Never pass away!
VERSE 3
For the year before us,
O what rich supplies!
For the poor and needy
Living streams shall rise;
For the sad and sinful
Shall His grace abound;
For the faint and feeble
Perfect strength be found.
CHORUS
Onward, then, and fear not,
Children of the day!
For His Word shall never,
Never pass away!
VERSE 4
He will never fail us,
He will not forsake;
His eternal covenant
He will never break!
Resting on His promise,
What have we to fear?
God is all-sufficient
For the coming year.
CHORUS
Onward, then, and fear not,
Children of the day!
For His Word shall never,
Never pass away!
