I know not why my Saviour

Author: Grace E. Lovelight Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Special Department Bible Songs Lyrics: 1 I know not why my Saviour Has done so much for me; I know not why his favor Has come so constantly; But this I know, I love him And trust him day by day, And cast my care upon him, And watch and praise and pray. 2 I know not why my Saviour Should leave a glorious throne, To bleed and die on Calv'ry, For sinners to atone; But this I know, 'tis certain, He fully ransomed me, And in that truth believing, I feel that I am free. 3 I know not why he bids me Breathe forth my wants in prayer, While day by day he sees me, And knows my ev'ry care; But this I know, while praying And trusting in his word, My soul, refreshed, and strengthened, Rests sweetly on the Lord. 4 I know not where he leads me, And yet I follow still; I know not why he needs me My vineyard place to fill; But this I know, at duty, In prayer or holy song, My heart keeps overflowing With rapture all day long!
