I know not why God’s wondrous grace to me He hath made known,
Nor why unworthy as I am, He claimed me for His own.
Chorus:
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,
Or how believing in His Word wrought peace within my heart.
I know not how the Spirit moves, convincing men of sin,
Revealing Jesus through the Word, creating faith in Him.
I know not what of good or ill may be reserved for me,
Of weary ways or golden days before His face I see.
