He Knows and He Hears

Representative Text

1 He knows and He hears
When you cry unto Him,
Though it may be your tears
Make the pathway seem dim.

2 He knows and He sees
When your soul’s in distress,
And if oft on your knees
With His presence He’ll bless.

3 He knows and He cares
When you’re troubled and tried,
Though it seems that your prayers
Fall so empty and void.

4 He knows, yes, He knows,
Why not trust in Him then,
And confide joys and woes
To the Savior of men?
