1 I know not what shall befall me,
God hangs a mist o'er my eyes,
And at each step in my onward way,
He makes new scenes to arise,
And ev'ry joy he sends to me
Is a strange and sweet surprise.
Chorus:
Not knowing, not knowing,
I'll follow Jesus my Savior,
Not knowing, not knowing,
I'll follow where'er he leads.
2 Oh, restful, blissful, darkness,
'Tis blessed not to know,
It keeps me still in the arms of God,
Which will not let me go;
My soul is hushed to peaceful rest
In the heart that loves me so. [Chorus]
3 So I go onward, not knowing,
I would not if I might,
I'd rather walk in the dark with God
Than walk alone in the light,
I'd rather walk with him by faith
Than walk alone by sight. [Chorus]
