This Is How I Know
Solos to Sing, Submitted Music (2007-2011)
Had I seen the leper healed at His command,
Had I witnessed wonders wrought by Jesus’ hand,
Had I heard Him teaching by the peaceful sea,
I could not know more surely of His love for me.
Had I heard His voice and followed where He led,
Had I been among the multitudes He fed,
Had I knelt before Him, learning at His feet,
I could not know more surely of His love for me.
For I have come before the Father’s throne in prayer.
I have felt in answer, sweet assurance there,
That Jesus is my Savior, Counselor and Friend,
Whose atoning love redeems my soul from sin.
He is strength unto the weary, sight unto the blind,
Help in all our trials, healer of mankind.
This is the conviction born within my soul.
The Spirit bears Him witness; this is how I know.
