170 . I Know Whom I Have Believed
Eb Ab Eb Ab Eb
I know not why God's wondrous grace
Ab Eb Bb
To me He hath made known,
Bb7 Eb Ab Eb Ab Eb
Nor why unworthy -Christ in love
Bb Bb7 Eb
Redeemed me for His own.
Chorus:
Ab Eb
But "I know whom I have believed
Ab7 Eb
And am persuaded that He is able
Ab Eb
To keep that which I've committed
Bb7 Eb
Unto Him against that day."
I know not how this saving faith
To me He did impart,
Nor how believing in His Word
Wrought peace within my heart.
I know not how the Spirit moves,
Convincing men of sin,
Revealing Jesus through the Word
Creating faith in Him.
I know not what of good or ill
May be reserved for me,
Of weary ways or golden days
Before His face I see.
I know not when my Lord may come,
At night or noonday fair
Nor if I'll walk the vale with Him
Or meet Him in the air.
