Author: Maggie E. Gregory Hymnal: Hymns of the Kingdom #105 (1905) Hymnal Title: Hymns of the Kingdom First Line: I may not see the path I tread Refrain First Line: My Father's hand will lead aright Lyrics: 1 I may not see the path I tread,
Nor would I, if I might;
I’d rather live a life of faith,
Than trust my own dim sight.
Refrain:
My Father’s hand will lead aright;
I’ll follow Him by faith, not sight;
I’ll follow Him, I’ll follow Him by faith, and not by sight.
2 I know not what the future holds;
It may be grief and care:
It may be peace and happiness
And joy of answered pray’r. [Refrain]
3 I know not what the morrow hides
Behind its misty veil,
But God has promised strength; and when
Did e’er His promise fail. [Refrain]
4 So I will trust Him, tho’ my path
With pain and care is rife;
For at its end He’ll give to me
The prize of endless life. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [I may not see the path I tread]
By Faith,—Not by Sight
