I Know Who Holds Tomorrow


-by Ira Stanphill

I don't know about tomorrow, I just live from day to day
I don't borrow from its sunshine for its skies may turn to gray
I don't worry o'er the future, for I know what Jesus said
And today I'll walk beside Him, for He knows what is ahead

Every step is getting brighter as the golden stairs I climb
Every burden's getting lighter, every cloud is silver lined
There the sun is always shining, there no tear will dim the eye
At the ending of the rainbow where the mountains touch the sky

I don't know about tomorrow, it may bring me poverty
But the One who feeds the sparrow is the One who stands by me
And the path that be my portion may be through the flame or flood
But His presence goes before me and I'm covered with His blood

Many things about tomorrow I don't seem to understand
But I know who holds tomorrow and I know who holds my hand
