Words:

 
 THY WILL
 
 BE
 
 DONE
 
 
MY GOD, MY FATHER,
WHILE I STRAY,
FAR FROM MY HOME, IN
LIFE'S ROUGH WAY,
O TEACH ME FROM MY
HEART TO SAY
" THY WILL BE DONE "
THOUGH DARK MY PATH,
AND SAD MY LOT,
LET ME BE STILL AND
MURMUR NOT,
OR BREATHE THE PRAYER
DIVINELY TAUGHT,
" THY WILL BE DONE "
IF THOU SHOULDST CALL
ME TO RESIGN
WHAT MOST I PRIZE, IT
NE'ER WAS MINE;
I ONLY YIELD THEE WHAT
IS THINE;
" THY WILL BE DONE "
LET BUT MY FAINTING
HEART BE BLEST
WITH THY SWEET SPIRIT
FOR ITS GUEST,
MY GOD, TO THEE I LEAVE
THE REST
" THY WILL BE DONE "
RENEW MY WILL FROM
DAY TO DAY,
BLEND IT WITH THINE,
AND TAKE AWAY
ALL THAT NOW MAKES IT
HARD TO SAY
" THY WILL BE DONE "
