I know not what awaits me
- I know not what awaits me,
God kindly veils my 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";
And every hour in perfect peace,
I'll sing, "He knows, He knows."
- 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 through the silence comes,
His loving, "Trust in Me!" - 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. - 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.

Aug. 21, 2010Huyen NguyenGarden Grove, CA, United StatesI was also really touched by this song, "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. 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." - I Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written,"Things which eye has not seen and ear has not heard and which have not come up in man's heart; things which God has prepared for those who love Him." Amen! :)
Aug. 7, 2009JoshPlano, TX, United StatesI first enjoyed this hymn when I was about to graduate from UT at a graduation meeting. O Lord may this hymn govern the rest of my life. I know not what awaits me but the Lord always takes care of us in the best way!
