I Know Whom I Have Believed

I know not why Your wondrous grace

To me You have made known;

Nor why You had so great a love

To save me for Your own; but . . . .

 

I know whom I have believed.

And am persuaded that You are able

To keep that which I’ve committed

Unto You until that day.

 

I know not how Your saving life

To me you did impart,

Nor how by calling on your name

You flow out from my heart; but . . .

 

I know whom I have believed.

And am persuaded that You are able

To keep that which I’ve committed

Unto You until that day.

 

I know not how Your Spirit moves,

Dispensing life to me,

Nor how by just beholding You,

Conformed to You I’ll be; still  . . .

 

I know whom I have believed.

And am persuaded that You are able

To keep that which I’ve committed

Unto You until that day.

 

I know not what of good or ill

May be reserved for me;

Of weary ways or golden days,

Until transformed I’ll be; yet . . .

 

I know whom I have believed.

And am persuaded that You are able

To keep that which I’ve committed

Unto You until that day.

 

I know one day, my Lord, You’ll come

To make this earth Your own,

And we’ll with You forever reign

As kings upon Your throne; for we

 

Know whom we have believed.

And am persuaded that You are able

To keep that which I’ve committed

Unto You until that day.
