Hymn 462
I Know Who Holds Tomorrow
I don't know about tomorrow,
I just live from day to day;
I don't borrow from its sunshine,
For its skies may turn to gray;
I don't worry o'er the future,
For I know what Jesus said,
And today I'll walk beside Him,
For He knows what is ahead.
Ev'ry step is getting brighter
As the golden stairs I climb,
Ev'ry burden's getting lighter,
Ev'ry cloud is silver lined;
There the sun is always shining,
There no tear will dim the eye;
At the ending of the rainbow
Where the mountains touch the sky.
I don't know about tomorrow,
It may bring me poverty,
But the One who feeds the sparrow
Is the One who stands by me;
And the path that be my portion
May be thru the flame or flood,
But His presence goes before me,
And I'm covered with His blood.
Many things about tomorrow
I don't seem to understand;
But I know who holds tomorrow,
And I know who holds my hand.
