Lyrics & Stanzas
5 portions
Verse 1
My God, my Father, tho' I stray Far from my home, on life's rough way, O teach me from my heart to say, "Thy will be done!"
Verse 2
Tho' dark my path, and sad my lot, Let me be still and murmur not, Or breathe the prayer divinely taught, "Thy will be done!"
Verse 3
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!"
Verse 4
Then, when on earth I breathe no more The prayer oft mixed with tears before, I'll sing upon a happier shore, "Thy will be done!"
Coda
Amen.
