Text: | My Father Knows |
Author: | S. M. I. Henry |
Tune: | [I know my heav'nly Father knows] |
Composer: | E. O. Excell |
1 I know my heav'nly Father knows
The storms that would my way oppose;
But He can drive the clouds away,
And turn my darkness into day.
And turn my darkness into day.
Chorus:
He knows, (My Father knows,) He knows (I'm sure He knows)
The storms that would my way oppose; (that would my way oppose;
He knows, (My Father knows,) He knows (I'm sure He knows)
And tempers ev'ry wind that blows . (the wind that blows.)
2 I know my heav'nly Father knows
The balm I need to soothe my woes,
And with His touch of love divine,
He heals this wounded soul of mine,
He heals this wounded soul of mine. [Chorus]
3 I know my heav'nly Father knows
How frail I am to meet my foes,
But He my cause will e'er defend,
Uphold and keep me to the end,
Uphold and keep me to the end. [Chorus]
4 I know my heav'nly Father knows
The hour my journey here will close,
And may that hour, O faithful Guide
Find me safe sheltered by Thy side,
Find me safe sheltered by Thy side. [Chorus]
