Jesus Said: Don’t Be Afraid

Virginia Groff 1959 (Allentown, Pa.)



There is no point in going there
When you can go somewhere worthwhile

There is no question without an answer
The answer is waiting
For the question to be asked

I am the answer to all your questions
The answers are all waiting
For the questions to be asked
