Our Heavenly Father Knows

Representative Text

1 Our heav’nly Fa­ther knows all our need,
And He to glo­ry our souls will speed;
If we but trust Him and serve Him here,
He will our sor­row and tri­als bear.

Refrain:
He knows, He knows;
Our heav’n­ly Fa­ther knows all our need;
He knows, He knows;
Our heav’n­ly Fa­ther knows all our need.

2 He knows our sor­rows, He knows our pain;
He knows our weak­ness, He knows our gain;
And He will keep us from ev­ery harm,
If we but lean on His migh­ty arm. [Refrain]

3 He knows our sad­ness, He knows our grief,
From all our tri­als He’ll give re­lief;
His bless­èd pro­mise will nev­er fail,
And He will guide us safe thru the vale. [Refrain]

4 When death a vic­tim our bo­dy claims,
He’ll know our ang­uish, He’ll know our pains;
He’ll not for­sake us, nor turn away;
He’ll be our com­fort, He’ll be our stay. [Refrain]
