1. I know not what awaits me,
  God kindly veils my eyes,
  And o'er each step of my onward way
  He makes new scenes to rise;
  And every joy He sends me comes
  A sweet and glad surprise.
(Chorus:)
  Where He may lead I'll follow,
  My trust in Him repose;
  And every hour in perfect peace,
  I'll sing, "He knows, He knows";
  And every hour in perfect peace,
  I'll sing, "He knows, He knows."
2. One step I see before me,
  'Tis all I need to see,
  The light of heaven more brightly shines
  When earth's illusions flee;
  And sweetly through the silence comes,
  His loving, "Trust in Me!"
3. Oh, blissful lack of wisdom,
  'Tis blessed not to know;
  He holds me with His own right hand,
  And will not let me go,
  And lulls my troubled soul to rest
  In Him who loves me so.
(Chorus:)
  Where He may lead I'll follow,
  My trust in Him repose;
  And every hour in perfect peace,
  I'll sing, "He knows, He knows";
  And every hour in perfect peace,
  I'll sing, "He knows, He knows."
4. So on I go not knowing;
  I would not if I might;
  I'd rather walk in the dark with God
  Than go alone in the light;
  I'd rather walk by faith with Him
  Than go alone by sight.
