*****************************
Crushing hopes that we cherish so dear
Clouds and storm will in time pass away
And the sun again will shine bright and clear.
Let us greet with a song of hope each day
Though the moments be cloudy or fair
Let us trust in our Savior always
To keep us everyone in His care.

I'll fear not the darkness when my flame shall dim
I know not what the future holds
But I know who holds the future
It's a secret known only to Him
***************************************
In this world of fear and doubt
On my knees I ask the question
Why a lonely, heavy cross I must bea
r
Then He tells me in my prayer
It's because I am trustworthy
He gives me strength far more than my share
***************************************
Known only to Him are the great hidden secrets
I'll fear not the darkness when my flame shall dim
I know not what the future holds
But I know who holds the future
It's a secret known only to Him
