I know not why God's wondrous grace
To me He has made known.
Nor why, unworthy, Christ in love
Redeemed me for His own.

[Chorus]
But I know whom I have believed,
And am persuaded that He is able
To keep that which I've committed
Unto Him against that day.

I know not how this saving faith
To me He did impart,
Nor how believing in His word
Wrought peace within my heart.

[Chorus]
But I know whom I have believed,
And am persuaded that He is able
To keep that which I've committed
Unto Him against that day.

I know not how the Spirit moves.
Convincing men of sin,
Revealing Jesus through the Word.
Creating faith in Him

[Chorus]
But I know whom I have believed,
And am persuaded that He is able
To keep that which I've committed
Unto Him against that day.

I know not what of good or ill
May be reserved for me.
Of weary ways or golden days
Before His face I see.

[Chorus]
But I know whom I have believed,
And am persuaded that He is able
To keep that which I've committed
Unto Him against that day.

I know not when my Lord may come.
At night or noon day fair.
Nor if I'll walk the vale with Him.
Or meet Him in the air.

[Chorus]
But I know whom I have believed,
And am persuaded that He is able
To keep that which I've committed
Unto Him against that day.
