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

    Refrain
    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.

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

    Refrain

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

    Refrain

 4  I know not what of good or ill 
       may be reserved for me,
    Of weary ways or golden days,
       before His face I see.

   Refrain

 5  I know not when my Lord may come,
       At night or noonday fair,
    Nor if I walk the vale with Him,
       Or meet Him in the air.

    Refrain
