He Knoweth and Loveth You.
Can you count the stars that glimmer
In the azure of the sky?
Do you know how many cloudlets
O'er the world go fleeting by?
God, the Lord, has each one numbered,
Not a star or cloud so small
But His watchful eye has noted,
God, the Father, knows them all.

Not a star or cloud so small
But His watchful eye has noted,

Do you know how many children
From bright morn to close of day,
Free from sorrow, toil and trouble.
Merry hearted, laugh and play?
God in heaven knows and loves them,
Cares for all they say or do—
Guards them in his tender keeping
And he knows and loveth you.

Free from sorrow, toil and trouble.
Merry hearted, laugh and play?

Guards them in his tender keeping
And he knows and loveth you.
