Beautiful saying of Umar (RA)

[usmanqamar1]

Does anyone know where the following saying of Umar (RA) is:

If someone announced from the heavens that everybody will enter Paradise except one person, I would fear that that person would be me

Ive heard it quoted from Imam Ghazzali (Ra) but im not sure. Please can someone clarify and post arabic text if possible.

Hilyat al-Awliya of Abu Nuaym vol.1 Pg.53.
It is quoted in Hayat as-Sahabah as well.

حلية الأولياء - (1 / 53)
حدثنا محمد بن معمر ثنا أبو شعيب الحراني ثنا يحيى بن عبدالله البابلتي ثنا الأوزاعي ثنا يحيى بن أبي كثير عن عمر بن الخطاب قال لو نادى مناد من السماء أيها الناس إنكم داخلون الجنة كلكم أجمعون إلا رجلا واحدا لخفت أن أكون هو ولو نادى مناد أيها الناس إنكم داخلون النار إلا رجلا واحدا لرجوت أن أكون هو

I had read it in Hayat as-Sahabah, so it had to be in the chapter on the Fear of Allah Ta'ala.
I found it in there, with a reference to the Hilyah, so I searched in al-Maktabah ash-Shamilah for it and it brought up the result from Hilyat al-Awliya.

I had read the hadeeth quoted in the op in Fazail-e-Aamaal, page 59.
