Joyful Sound ‎#107

107. I Trust and Wait

1 I know not what a day may bring
Of joy or pain to me;
But from the past my soul has learned
To trust, O Lord, in thee.

Refrain:
And so, whate’er my spirit fill,
I trust and wait thy sovereign will;
Believing this, that thou, my Friend,
Wilt guide me safely to the end.

2 I know not what a day may bring,
Or where my path may lead;
But ev’ry promise in thy word
My soul delights to plead. [Refrain]

3 I know not what a day may bring,
It matters naught to me;
Since like a child by faith I rest,
Confiding, Lord, in thee. [Refrain]

4 I know not if my waking eyes
Another day may see;
But angel wings will quickly bear
My raptured soul to thee. [Refrain]
