Author: Maj. D. W. Whittle (El Nathan) Hymnal: The New Church Hymnal #143 (1976) First Line: I know not why God's wondrous grace Refrain First Line: But "I know whom I have believed Lyrics: 1 I know not why God's wondrous graceTo 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 ableto keep that which I've committedunto Him against that day.”2 I know not how this saving faithTo me He did impart,Nor how believing in His WordWrought peace within my heart. [Refrain]3 I know not how the Spirit moves,Convincing men of sin.Revealing Jesus thro' the Word,Creating faith in Him. [Refrain]4 I know not what of good or illMay 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] Topics: The Christian Life Assurance and Hope; Choruses; Christian Life; Faith; Salvation; Second Coming Languages: English Tune Title: EL NATHAN
