Hast thou not known by Carl Pflueger — Lyrics
Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.
He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.
Even the youths shall faint and be weary,

About Hast thou not known
Carl Pflueger’s SATB setting of Hast thou not known opens with a sense of expansive vocal writing, the four parts weaving together to create a rich and resonant sound. The text, drawn from the prophet Isaiah, speaks of the enduring power and strength of God, and the assurance of renewal for those who place their faith in him. Pflueger’s music moves with a flowing, anthem-like quality, building with conviction as the text progresses from the weariness of the world to the inexhaustible might of the Creator. It is a powerful and affirmative setting of this well-known scriptural passage, suitable for services or concerts where a message of hope and spiritual fortitude is desired.
