1 My Father knows my need,
And I can trust His love;
He may not always deign to give me
The things which I most crave.

Refrain:
My Father knows, Oh yes, He knows,
And with my soul ’tis well.

2 My Father knows my need,
He will supply it all;
He hears His children when they cry, and
He answers when they call. [Refrain]

3 My Father knows my need,
His love no tongue can tell;
And if sometimes He does deny me,
I know for me ’tis well. [Refrain]

4 My Father knows my need,
He knows my strength is small,
So I will trust His love and grace, for
He will not let me fall. [Refrain]

5 My Father knows my need,
I fear no dread alarms,
For round about and underneath me
Are everlasting arms. [Refrain]
