Fear Not

Fear not for those who seek ill of you
 For they have closed their minds and hearts to the goodness that is in you
They wish you only sorrow and pain
They fear the light that shines from you and from where it came
Be careful of all around you
Think before you speak and heed what you do
You are the vassal that holds compassion and light
You have been given the gifts of truth and sight
Though you walk among many who envy you
I stand by your side always to defend and protect you
You have my spirit, my soul, my heart
And for the rest of your days from you I will never part.
