I have known Him in the best of times When every day was nothing but sunshine And Hisblessings were my daily bread It was true, I knew Him then and yet Now I know Him As my Shelter in the rain, Yes, now I know Him As my Shepherd through the pain He is dear when life is easy But in heartache, so much more And now I know Him Like I never have before If my faith had not been tested by the flames How could I have known these depths of grace? 'Cause what is trust until it's proven true When I see the valleys He has brought me through Now I know Him as the Healer of my heart Yes, now I know Him The Hand the led me through the dark He is dear when life is easy, But in heartache, so much more And now I know Him Like I never have before
