God Must Have Known

God must have known our hearts would need
A reassuring touch
When He made the friendly handclasp
That warms our heart so much.

He must have known that skies of blue
Would ofttimes turn to gray.
He put the sunshine in a smile
To brighten up our day.

God knew, I'm sure, that you and I
Would need a helping hand
Or kindly word to let us know
That others understand.

God must have known our hearts would need
A special kind of cheer;
I'm sure that's why He sent dear friends
To journey with us here.

Give thanks to the Lord,
for He is good, for His
kindness endures forever.
I Chronicles 16:34
