I KNOW
I know my Saviour lives and really loves me,
I know the Holy Spirit my true comforter be,
I know my Father in heaven hears my prayer,
I know these three friends will always be there.
In times when trouble mounts like a black cloud,
And the sickness of loved ones hangs like a shroud
There is light, love and sweet caring, eternal love,
Flowing like a mantle from heaven’s counts above.
Sweet peace glides like a river of repose in my heart,
No fear lurks to hurt and stops me doing my part.
For I know of truth and light that shines from God,
Know the way shown me clearly as heavenward I plod.
I can say whatever may befall, all is well, all is well.
For things are sent to test and try us as here we dwell,
If the road was smooth and easy how would we grow?
How could we learn to love and gratitude to God show,
If we had no trials so we can taste the good and sweet,
So we should be grateful as great trials we do meet,
For we need to grow so we can love and understand
The suffering of others, and gain humility as planned.
