I KNOW WHOM I HAVE BELIEVED  (Whittle, 1883)

I know not why God's wondrous grace
To me He hath made known,
Nor why, unworthy, Christ in love
Redeemed me for His own.

Refrain
But I know whom I have believed,
And am persuaded that He is able
To keep that Which I've committed
Unto Him against that day.


I know not how this saving faith
To me He did impart,
Nor how believing in His Word
Wrought peace within my heart.

Refrain


I know not how the Spirit moves,
Convincing us of sin,
Revealing Jesus through the Word,
Creating faith in Him.

Refrain


I know not what of good or ill
May be reserved for me,
Of weary ways or golden days,
Before His face I see.

Refrain


I know not when my Lord may come,
At night or noonday fair,
Nor if I walk the vale with Him,
Or meet Him in the air.

Refrain
