Known Only To Him Lyrics - Don Gibson

When my eyes behold the stars 

This heart of mine is filled with wonder 

My poor mind cannot grasp their array 

But the hand that spilled them there 

All across the wide heaven 

Had a plan when He placed them that way 

[Chorus] 

Known only to Him 

Are the great hidden secrets 

I'll fear not the darkness when my flame shall dim 

I know not what the future holds 

But I know who holds the future 

It's a secret known only to Him 

In this world of fear and doubt 

On my knees I ask the question 

Why a lonely heavy cross I must bear? 

Then He tells me in my prayer 

It's because I am trust worthy 

He gives me strength far more than my share 

[Chorus]
