Text: | I Know Not Why God's Wondrous Grace |
Author: | Daniel W. Whittle |
Tune: | EL NATHAN |
Composer: | James McGranahan |
1 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.”
2 I know not how this saving faith
To me He did impart,
Nor how believing in His Word
Wrought peace within my heart. (Refrain)
3 I know not how the Spirit moves,
Convincing men of sin,
Revealing Jesus through the Word,
Creating faith in Him. (Refrain)
4 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)
