I Know Who Holds Tomorrow

This is a favorite song of mine. It became precious to me when I was facing making a major decision in my life some years ago. I would play it on the old pump organ and let the words soak in my spirit. The Lord used this song to prepare me for what life would bring for me down the road.

I Know Who Holds Tomorrow
(by Ira Stanphill)
Verse 1
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.

Chorus:
Many things about tomorrow, I don't seem to understand;
But I know who holds tomorrow, and I know who holds my hand.

Verse 2
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.

Chorus:
Many things about tomorrow, I don't seem to understand;
But I know who holds tomorrow, and I know who holds my hand.

Verse 3
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.
 
Chorus:
Many things about tomorrow, I don't seem to understand;
But I know who holds tomorrow, and I know who holds my hand
