The Service Hymnal ‎#71

71. I Know Not How

1 I know not how that Bethlehem's Babe
Could in the Godhead be;
I only know the Manger Child
Has brought God's life to me;
I only know the Manger Child
Has brought God's life to me!

2 I know not how that Calvary's cross
A world from sin could free;
I only know its matchless love
Has brought God's love to me;
I only know its matchless love
Has brought God's love to me!

3 I know not how that Joseph's tomb
Could solve death's mystery;
I only know a living Christ,
Our immortality;
I only know a living Christ,
Our immortality!
