I know not what awaits me ; God kindly veils mine eyes, And o'er each step of my onward way He makes new scenes to rise ; And every joy He sends me comes A sweet and glad surprise.
Where He may lead I'll follow, My trust in Him repose : And every hour in perfect peace I'll sing, " He knows ! He knows ! "
2. One step I see before me ; 'Tis all I need to see : The light of heaven more brightly shines, When earth's illusions flee ; And sweetly thro' the silence comes His loving, " Follow Me."
3. Oh, blissful lack of wisdom ! 'Tis blessed not to know ; He holds me with His own right hand, And will not let me go ; And lulls my troubled soul to rest In Him who loves me so.
4. So on I go----not knowing, I would not if I might ; I'd rather walk in the dark with God Than go alone in the light ; I'd rather walk by faith with Him Than go alone by sight.
