6. I Know It

1 Must I live in doubt and fear, not ever knowing
That I am a child of God down here below?
Must I wander on, not knowing where I’m going?—
If my sins are blotted out I want to know.

Refrain:
I am saved, hallelujah, and I know it,
I am ransomed by the blood of Calvary;
Oh, I know without a doubt that my sins all blotted out,
I am saved, hallelujah, and I know it.

2 Must I strive to save myself with good endeavor?
Must I only live a life of outward show?
Must I hope and strive, and can I really never
Deep within my heart be sure that I may know? [Refrain]

3 Culture and refinement cannot bring the blessing,
Learning, goodness, self-control must only fail;
We must come to Christ our guilt and need confessing,
Nothing but His blood can for our sins avail. [Refrain]

4 I shall never cease to tell the wondrous story
Of the Christ who spoke my pardon one glad day;
I shall never cease to give Him all the glory
Since He saved me in the good old fashioned way. [Refrain]
