God holds the key of all unknown,
    And I am glad;
If other hands should hold the key,
Or if He trusted it to me,
    I might be sad.
GGod 
holds the 
Ckey 
of 
Gall 
un
D7known, 
And 
G
am 
Dglad; 
If 
D7oth
er hands should 
Ghold 
the key, 
Or if He 
G7trust
ed 
Amit 
to me, 
Gmight 
D7be 
Gsad.

What if tomorrow’s cares were here,
    Without its rest?
I’d rather He unlocked the day,
And, as the hours swing open, say,
    My will is best.
What if tomorrow’s cares were here,
    Without its rest?
I’d rather He unlocked the day,
And, as the hours swing open, say,
    My will is best.

The very dimness of my sight
    Makes me secure;
For, groping in my misty way,
I feel His hand; I hear Him say,
    My help is sure.
The very dimness of my sight
    Makes me secure;
For, groping in my misty way,
I feel His hand; I hear Him say,
    My help is sure.

I cannot read His future plans;
    But this I know:
I have the smiling of His face,
And all the refuge of His grace
    While here below.
I cannot read His future plans;
    But this I know:
I have the smiling of His face,
And all the refuge of His grace
    While here below.

Enough; this covers all my wants;
    And so I rest;
For what I cannot, He can see,
And in His care I saved shall be,
    Forever blest.
Enough; this covers all my wants;
    And so I rest;
For what I cannot, He can see,
And in His care I saved shall be,
    Forever blest.
Repeat the last line of each stanza.

This is the first time I have heard this song. The lyrics are amazing, I was just thinking about how great God's plan for my life has been especially compared to the plans I had for myself, I am so glad He holds the key.

This song gives me hope and consolation especially when I grieve over the death of young friends or relatives.

Stanza 2 is different:

2. If worries of tomorrow came

To me today,

Without tomorrow's care as well,

Just what to do, I could not tell

Or even pray.
