I Know Not What Awaits Me ;
God Kindly Veils Mine Eyes,
And O’er Each Step Of My Onward Way
He Makes New Scenes To Rise ;
And Every Joy He Sends Me Comes
A Sweet And Glad Surprise.

Where He May Lead I’ll Follow,
My Trust In Him Repose
And Every Hour In Perfect Peace
I’ll Sing, He Knows ! He Knows !

One Step I See Before Me ;
‘Tis All I Need To See :
The Light Of Heaven More Brightly Shines,
When Earth’s Illusions Flee ;
And Sweetly Thro’ The Silence Comes
His Loving, Follow Me.

Oh, Blissful Lack Of Wisdom !
‘Tis Blessed Not To Know ;
He Holds Me With His Own Right Hand,
And Will Not Let Me Go ;
And Lulls My Troubled Soul To Rest
In Him Who Loves Me So.

So On I Go Not Knowing,
I Would Not If I Might ;
I’d Rather Walk In The Dark With God
Than Go Alone In The Light ;
I’d Rather Walk By Faith With Him
Than Go Alone By Sight.
