God has not promised sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow,
Peace without pain.
But God has promised
Strength for the day,
Rest for the weary,
Light for the way,
Grace through our trials,
Help from above..
..Unfailing kindness,
Undying love.
God has not promised we shall not know
Toil and temptation,
Trouble and woe;
He has not told us we shall not bear
Many a burden,
Many a care.
But God has promised
Strength for the day,
Rest for the weary,
Light for the way,
Grace through our trials,
Help from above..
..Unfailing kindness,
Undying love.
