I know my heavenly Father knows

by S. M. I. Henry

Representative text

As printed in The Church Hymnal (1941), no. 591 — the newest hymnal carrying it.

Verse 1

I know my heavenly Father knows The storms that would my way oppose; But He can drive the clouds away. And turn my darkness into day, And turn my darkness into day.

Refrain

He knows, He knows The storms that would my way oppose; He knows, He knows, And tempers every wind that blows.

Verse 2

I know my heavenly Father knows The balm I need to soothe my woes; And with His touch of love divine He heals this wounded soul of mine, He heals this wounded soul of mine.

Verse 3

I know my heavenly Father knows How frail I am to meet my foes; But He my cause will e'er defend, Uphold and keep me to the end, Uphold and keep me to the end.

Verse 4

I know my heavenly Father knows The hour my journey here will close; And may that hour, O faithful Guide, Find me safe sheltered by Thy side, Find me safe sheltered by Thy side.
