Some Day He’ll Make It Plain

I do not know why oft ’round me

My hopes all shat­tered seem to be;

God’s per­fect plan I can­not see

But some day I’ll un­der­stand.

Some day He’ll make it plain to me

Some day when I His face shall see;

Some day from tears I shall be free

For some day I shall un­der­stand.

I can­not tell the depth of love

Which moves the Fa­ther’s heart above;

My faith to test

my love to prove

But some day I’ll un­der­stand.

Tho’ tri­als come thro’ pass­ing days

My life will still be filled with praise;

For God will lead thro’ dark­ened ways

But some day I’ll un­der­stand.
