He Knows It All (Morris)

He knows the bit­ter

wea­ry way

The end­less striv­ing day by day

The souls that weep

the souls that pray

He knows it all!

He knows how hard the fight has been

The clouds that come our lives be­tween

The wounds the world has nev­er seen

He knows it all!

He knows when faint and worn we sink;

How deep the pain

how near the brink

Of dark des­pair we pause and shrink

He knows it all!

He knows! oh

thought so full of bliss!

For though on earth our joys we miss

We still can bear it

feel­ing this—

He knows it all!
