About this Hymn
This song was written to help children of every age with anxiety. Initially subtitled "Hymn for Anxious Little Hearts," it was written out of our deep concern for the scourge of anxiety among children today, especially young girls, compared to previous generations. Simple to learn, the song encourages anxious little hearts, young and old, to trust the Savior in times of fear and uncertainty.
Lyrics
Verse 1
When my heart is filled with fear, like a stormy sky; Jesus says, "Be not afraid." He is at my side.
Chorus
There's a rock where I can go, keeps me safe, and this I know: deep within my troubled soul, Jesus calms the storm.
Verse 2
When my thoughts are tossed and turned, like a raging sea; I will listen to his voice, he will comfort me.
Verse 3
When I feel the shame of sin, like a crashing wave; my Redeemer rescues me, by his grace I'm saved.
Verse 4
He who rules the wind and waves soon will come again. Oh, take courage, little heart; ev'ry storm will end.
When my heart is filled with fear, like a stormy sky; Jesus says, "Be not afraid." He is at my side.
