Hymns - His Voice I Hear - Текст песни

1. I cannot tell when the thunders peal,
 How fiercely the storm may rage,
 Nor how dense are the shades of the night that steal
 O???er the path of my pilgrimage;
 But I know, with my Savior always near,
 As that night on the Galilee,
 The tempest will cease when His voice I hear,
 And the darkest shadows flee.
 2. I cannot see through the darkest clouds
 His image so wondrous fair,
 And forget sometimes, when the gloom enshrouds,
 The mansion awaiting there;
 But if on the wings of faith I soar,
 In the strength of His word alone,
 My soul can drink till I want no more,
 From fountains of love unknown.
 3. I cannot drink one draught of pain
 From the cup once drained for me,
 Or bear the heat on the desert plain,
 Nor the grief of Gethsemane;
 But I know, if His cross I meekly bear,
 If I labor, and watch, and pray,
 His suff???rings I a part may share
 From thorns in the narrow way.
 4. I cannot see for the veil between
 The beautiful gates ajar,
 The streets of gold, and the living green,
 On the banks of the river there;
 But I know, somewhere, on that heavenly strand,
 Is a mansion, and robe, and crown,
 Preserved by the Savior???s loving hand
 Till my work on earth is done.
