I Do Not Know How

I do not know how Ad­am’s sin

Lives on in you and me

Nor how it caus­es all the wrong

And sor­row that we see.

But I read it in God’s Word

and I be­lieve it;

Yes

I be­lieve it

ful­ly be­lieve it!

I read it in God’s Word

and I be­lieve it

And that is all I need to do.

I do not know how God could give

Unto a maid­en fair

His ho­ly Son

in Beth­l’hem born

His bed a man­ger bare.

I do not know how God could lay

My sins up­on His Son

Nor how

on Cal­v’ry’s cross

for me

He per­fect par­don won.

I do not know how God could call

His Son from out the grave

Nor how that way to me His

Everlasting life He gave.

I do not know how Je­sus’ blood

Can cleanse my heart from sin

Nor how

by faith

in ev­ery fight

The vic­to­ry I may win.

I do not know how one day He

Can come to earth again

Nor how like Him I shall be made

And ev­er with Him reign.
