He Knoweth the Way
Author: Rev. W. R. Fitch Hymnal: Coronation Hymns #11 (1913) First Line: I know not the field where the Master today Lyrics: 1 I know not the field where the Master today
Would have me to glean, and the sheaves gather in;
But this I do know, He will show me the way
to garner the souls I am striving to win.
Chorus:
He knoweth the way,
His will I obey,
Whatever befall,
I can trust Him for all;
He knoweth, He knoweth the way.
2 A prayer, or a tear, of a glance of the eye,
May soften a heart that is careless or cold;
The Spirit will help me, if only I try
To lead a lost sinner back into the fold. [Chorus]
3 I cannot quite tell where today He will lead,
Or say on what errand He'll ask me to go;
And yet I am sure that whatever my need,
His wisdom and grace he will freely bestow. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [I know not the field where the Master today]

Chas. H. Gabriel
1856 - 1932 Composer of "[I know not the field where the Master today]" in The Victory Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree
=============
For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades.
