My God, My Father, While I Stray
My God, my Father, while I stray
Far from my home on life's rough way
Oh, 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"
Though Thou hast called me to resign
What most I prized, never was mine
I only yielded what was Thine
"Thy will be done"
But if my fainting heart be blessed
With the Holy Spirit for its guest
My God, to Thee I leave the rest
"Thy will be done"
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
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"
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"
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Far from my home on life's rough way
Oh, 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"
Though Thou hast called me to resign
What most I prized, never was mine
I only yielded what was Thine
"Thy will be done"
But if my fainting heart be blessed
With the Holy Spirit for its guest
My God, to Thee I leave the rest
"Thy will be done"
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
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"
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"
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
