A Favorite

The other day in church we sang this song. Of course, the words are a little different in French, but I smiled at the familiar tune as the English words soothed my heart. When I know nothing else, it is sweet to know this.

I Know Whom I Have Believed
Text: Daniel W. Whittle
Music: James McGranahan

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 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)
