[Let infidels fear]

Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before, &c. —xxvii. 24.

Let infidels fear
When destruction is near:
A believer is hidden above,
Out of danger is he,
From anxiety free,
In the arms of omnipotent Love.
The tempest may roar,
But it cannot devour,
While on Jesus's promise alone
Secure he relies,
He all evil defies,
Till the work of his Master is done.
