Hymns of the Kingdom ‎#20

20. It is His Will

1 I ask not why some days are fair,
Why some are filled with grief and care;
I ask not why, but trusting still,
I only know it is His will.

Refrain:
It is His will, and I am satisfied!
It is His will, nor want I aught beside.
I ask not why, but trusting will,
I only know it is His will.

2 By paths unknown to me He leads,
Through desert wilds or flow’ry meads;
Where’er I go, He leads me still,
I only know it is His will. [Refrain]

3 It is His will and I am blest,
With Him, my God, I lead the rest;
By troubled seas, be waters still,
I only know it is His will. [Refrain]
