I know not what awaits me, God kindly veils mine eyes, And o’er each step of my onward way He makes new scenes to rise; And every joy He sends me, comes A sweet and glad surprise.
Refrain: Where He may lead me I’ll follow, My trust in Him repose, And every hour in perfect peace I’ll sing, He knows, He knows; And every hour in perfect peace I’ll sing, He knows, He knows.
One step I see before me, ’Tis all I need to see, The light of Heav’n more brightly shines, When earth’s illusions flee; And sweetly through the silence, came His loving “Follow Me.”
Oh, blissful lack of wisdom, ’Tis blessed not to know; He holds me with His own right hand, And will not let me go, And lulls my troubled soul to rest In Him Who loves me so.
So on I go not knowing, I would not if I might; I’d rather walk in the dark with God Than go alone in the light; I’d rather walk in faith with Him Than go alone by sight.
