It May Be the Best for Me

Author: C.A. Tindley Hymnal: Soul Echoes #19 (1909) First Line: I often wonder why it is Lyrics: 1. I often wonder why it is, While some are happy and free, That I am tried and sore oppressed, But it may be the best for me. Chorus: It may be the best for me, It may be the best for me, The Lord knows the way And I will obey, It may be the best for me. 2. Some have the wealth to throw away, While I am compelled to be In want almost from day to day, But it may be the best for me. 3. I think of children with parents at home, What joy and comfort they see, While mine are gone and I am alone, But it may be the best for me. 4. Some walk in paths with flowers strewn, No burdens, no misery, While I must bear my cross alone, But it may be the best for me. Languages: English Tune Title: [I often wonder why it is]
