Perfect Love
 
Refrain:
Perfect love casts out fear, 
Fear brings only torment;
Perfect love makes us bold 
In the day of judgment. 
 
1. Trials, losses, pains and death: 
These are fears that steal mens breath.
But with Christ all fears remove, 
Swept away by the pow'r of love. 
(Refrain)
 
2. Fear holds men as slaves within, 
Slaves to fashion, slaves to sin;
True religion breaks these bands, 
Puts our lives into safer Hands. 
(Refrain)
 
3. Love makes bold against all foes, 
Persecutions, threats and blows;
Hosts of demons fill the land–
Fearless still, on God's word we stand. 
(Refrain)
