Love the Lyrics 10-28-13

I know not what awaits me

I know not what awaits me,

  God kindly veils my eyes,

And o’er each step of my onward way

  He makes new scenes to rise;

And every joy He sends me comes

  A sweet and glad surprise.

• Where He may lead I’ll follow,
    My trust in Him repose;
  And every hour in perfect peace,
    I’ll sing, “He knows, He knows“;
  And every hour in perfect peace,
      I’ll sing, “He knows, He knows.”

One step I see before me,

  ’Tis all I need to see,

The light of heaven more brightly shines

  When earth’s illusions flee;

And sweetly through the silence comes,

  His loving, “Trust in Me!”

Oh, blissful lack of wisdom,

  ’Tis blessed not to know;

He holds me with His own right hand,

  And will not let me go,

And lulls my troubled soul to rest

  In Him who loves me so.

So on I go not knowing;

  I would not if I might;

I’d rather walk in the dark with God

  Than go alone in the light;

I’d rather walk by faith with Him

  Than go alone by sight.
