I know not why God’s wondrous grace |
To me He hath made known, |
Nor why, unworthy, Christ in love |
Redeemed me for His own. |
|
Refrain |
|
But I know Whom I have
believèd, |
And am persuaded that He is
able |
To keep that which I’ve
committed |
Unto Him against that day. |
|
I know not how this saving faith |
To me He did impart, |
Nor how believing in His Word |
Wrought peace within my heart. |
|
Refrain |
|
I know not how the Spirit moves, |
Convincing us of sin, |
Revealing Jesus through the Word, |
Creating faith in Him. |
|
Refrain |
|
I know not what of good or ill |
May be reserved for me, |
Of weary ways or golden days, |
Before His face I see. |
|
Refrain |
|
I know not when my Lord may come, |
At night or noonday fair, |
Nor if I walk the vale with Him, |
Or meet Him in the air. |
|
Refrain |
