1.神未曾应许：天色常蓝，人生的路途花香常漫；
神未曾应许：久晴无雨，常乐无痛苦常安无虞。
2.神未曾应许：不遇试探，懊恼和忧虑、不幸悲叹；
神未曾应许：不负重担，无繁忙事务、周折困难。
3.神未曾应许：路常平坦，任意地奔跑，毫无阻拦，
没有深水阻，汪洋一片，没有大山挡，仰观云天。
（副歌）
神却曾应许：生活有力，行路有光亮，作工得息，
试炼得恩助，危难有赖，无限的体谅，不尽的爱。
1. God has not promised skies always blue,
Flower-strewn pathways all our lives through;
God has not promised sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow, peace without pain.
Refrain:
But God has promised strength for the day,
Rest for the labor, light for the way,
Grace for the trials, help from above,
Unfailing kindness, undying love.
2. God has not promised we shall not know
Toil and temptation, trouble and woe;
He has not told us we shall not bear
Many a burden, many a care.
3. God has not promised smooth roads and wide,
Swift, easy travel, needing no guide;
Never a mountain rocky and steep,
Never a river turbid and deep.
