If We Could See Beyond Today

If we could see beyond today
As God can see
If all the clouds should roll away
The shadows flee;
O’er present griefs we would not fret
Each sorrow we would soon forget
For many joys are waiting yet
For you and me

If we could know beyond today
As God doth know
Why dearest treasures pass away
And tears must flow;
And why the darkness leads to light
Why dreary days will soon grow bright
Some day life’s wrong will be made right
Faith tells us so

If we could see, if we could know
We often say
But God in love a veil doth throw
Across our way
We cannot see what lies before
And so we cling to Him thе more
He leads us till this lifе is o’er
Trust and obey
