Hymn lyrics to He knows what I need, a hymn about God supplying what we need, not necessarily what we ask for. And a reminder of the price Jesus Christ paid to provide for us …
I ask for a robe … He gave me no robe to wear …
I ask for a crown … He gave me a cross to bear …
He knows what I need …. Yes, indeed … He knows what I need..
I ask for myself… He showed me a friend in need …
Oh I must be fed … He gave me his word to read …
He knows what I need … Yes, indeed … He knows what I need …
Oh some happy day … I’ll hear the trumpet sound …
I’m going away … Oh I will be heaven bound …
He knows what I need … Yes, indeed …He knows what I need …
He’ll wipe all my tears … He’ll wipe all my tears away …
To hear his well done … Oh that will be heaven to me …
He knows what I need …. Yes, indeed … He knows what I need …
All the way … from Heaven’s throne … to a manger there alone …
Led to the cross … He came to suffer … every thing …
He ask for a cup … But oh, what a bitter cup …
He never complained … He murmured not a word
He knows what I need … Yes indeed … He knows … what … I … need …
He knows what I need …
