Author: Will M. Maupin Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3943 First Line: I know not where the path may lead Refrain First Line: But this I know, whate'er betide Lyrics: 1. I know not where the path may lead,
How dark the way that I must tread;
My feet may walk on fragrant mead,
Or midst deep bogs that ’round them spread.
Refrain
But this I know, whate’er betide,
I need not fear nor walk alone;
I still may have One at my side,
And feel my hand within His own.
2. I may not have strength of my own,
To do the task before me laid;
Heart shrink to make the fight alone
Against the foe I see arrayed. [Refrain]
3. But this I know, whate’er the task,
Or foe that seeks my soul’s alarm,
I need not fear; I need but ask
The helpful strength of His strong arm. [Refrain]
4. I may not know what waits the day,
Nor part the veil that hangs between;
I may not glimpse one golden ray
Upon the further distant scene. [Refrain]
5. But this I know, if with my best
I played the part I had to play,
’Tis safe to leave to Him the rest,
For His own time, in His own way. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [I know not where the path may lead]
