~~GOD HATH NOT PROMISED~~

Verse 1
God hath not promised
Skies always blue,
Flower-strewn pathways
All our lives through.
God hath not promised
Sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow,
Peace without pain.
Chorus
But God hath promised
Strength for the day,
Rest for the labor,
Light for the way,
Grace for the
Help from above,
Unfailing sympathy,
Undying love.

Verse 2
God hath not promised
We shall not know
Toil and temptation,
Trouble and woe;
He hath not told us,
We shall not bear
Many a burden,
Many a care.
Chorus
But God hath promised
Strength for the day,
Rest for the labor
Light for the way,
Grace for the trials,
Help from above,
Unfailing sympathy,
Undying love.

Verse 3
God hath not promised
Smooth roads and wide,
Swift, easy travel,
Needing no guide;
Never a mountain
Rocky and steep,
Never a river
Turbid and deep.
Chorus
But God hath promised
Strength for the day,
Rest for the labor,
Light for the way,
Grace for the trials
Help from above,
Unfailing sympathy,
Undying love.
