Blake Gillette – I'll Know For Myself lyrics
Young boy from New York with a simple question
"If you lack wisdom, let him ask of God" he read,
Then he knew.
Spring eighteen twenty, in the Sacred Grove
Young Joseph prayed and a pillar of light appeared
Then he knew.
Like him I will pray, I'll ask of the Lord.
Like him, I'll have faith to know.
That if I will offer the thoughts of my heart,
Then I'll know for myself.
Humbly kneeling, sweet appealing
T'was the boy's first uttered prayer.
Joseph's humble prayer was answered,
And he listened to the Lord.
While appeared two Heav'nly beings,
God the Father and the Son.
Oh what rapture filled his bosom,
For he saw the living God.
Each day is dif'rent, full of dif'rent questions.
I'll find my own grove, and I'll quietly pray to God.
Then I'll know.
Like him, I will pray, I'll ask of the Lord,
Like him, I'll have faith to know.
That if I will offer the thoughts of my hear,
Then, I'll know for myself.
I'll know for myself.
"If you lack wisdom, let him ask of God" he read,
Then he knew.
Spring eighteen twenty, in the Sacred Grove
Young Joseph prayed and a pillar of light appeared
Then he knew.
Like him I will pray, I'll ask of the Lord.
Like him, I'll have faith to know.
That if I will offer the thoughts of my heart,
Then I'll know for myself.
Humbly kneeling, sweet appealing
T'was the boy's first uttered prayer.
Joseph's humble prayer was answered,
And he listened to the Lord.
While appeared two Heav'nly beings,
God the Father and the Son.
Oh what rapture filled his bosom,
For he saw the living God.
Each day is dif'rent, full of dif'rent questions.
I'll find my own grove, and I'll quietly pray to God.
Then I'll know.
Like him, I will pray, I'll ask of the Lord,
Like him, I'll have faith to know.
That if I will offer the thoughts of my hear,
Then, I'll know for myself.
I'll know for myself.
