I Know Whom I Have Believed

Words: Daniel W. Whittle · Music: James McGranahan · 1883

Verse 1
I know not why God's wondrous grace
to me he hath made known,
nor why, unworthy, Christ in love
redeemed me for his own.

Chorus
But I know whom I have believed,
and am persuaded that he is able
to keep that which I've committed
unto him against that day.

Verse 2
I know not how this saving faith
to me he did impart,
nor how believing in his word
wrought peace within my heart.

Verse 3
I know not how the Spirit moves,
convincing men of sin,
revealing Jesus through the word,
creating faith in him.

Verse 4
I know not when my Lord may come,
at night or noonday fair,
nor if I'll walk the vale with him,
or meet him in the air.
