As God can see,
If all the clouds should roll away,
The shadows flee;
O'er present griefs we would not fret
Each sorrow we would soon forget,
For you and me.
If we could know beyond today
As God doth know,
Why dearest treasures pass away,
And tears must flow;
And why the darkness leads to light
Why dreary days will soon grow bright,
Some day life's wrong will be made right,
Faith tells us so.
If we couls see, if we could know
We often say
But God in love a veil doth throw
Across our way
We cannot see what lies before,
And so we cling to Him the more
He leads us till this life is o'er,
Trust and obey
