"I KNOW WHO HOLDS TOMORROW"

I don't know about to morrow,
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.


[These 3 chords after Chorus and first Repeat Chorus only.]

Ev'ry step is getting brighter
As the golden stairs I climb;
Ev'ry burden's getting lighter,
Ev'ry 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.

[Repeat Chorus]

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 love.

[Repeat Chorus]

Last Chorus
Many things about tomorrow
I don't seem to understand,
But I know Who holds tomorrow,
And I know Who holds my hand.
