GHS 101 : My Father Knows Lyrics
GHS 101, “My Father Knows,” is a hymn of quiet comfort for believers going through seasons that are hard to explain and harder to carry. Each stanza names something that the world around us often cannot see: the bitter, weary way of daily striving, the nearness of despair, the wounds that nobody witnesses, the hidden fights that leave no visible marks. And to each of these hidden burdens, the hymn gives the same answer: My Father knows.
It is a hymn that does not promise the difficulty will end quickly but does promise that it is not unseen. God the Father is fully aware of every detail, and that awareness itself is a source of deep strength. This hymn appears as number 101 in the Gospel Hymns and Songs (GHS) collection, used in Deeper Life Bible Church and related assemblies across West Africa.
Hymn Lyrics – GHS 101: My Father Knows
-
He knows the bitter, weary way, The endless striving day by day, The souls that weep, the souls that pray; My Father knows, my Father knows.
-
He knows when faint and worn we sink, How deep the pain, how near the brink Of dark despair we pause and shrink; My Father knows, my Father knows.
-
He knows how hard the fight has been, The clouds that come our lives between, The wounds the world has never seen; My Father knows, my Father knows.
-
He knows! O heart, take up thy cross, And know earth’s treasures are but dross, And all will prove as gain, not loss; My Father knows, my Father knows.
