My God, My Father, Make Me Strong
Author: Frederick Mann, 1846-1928 Meter: 8.8.8.4 Appears in 13 hymnals Topics: Commitment; Commitment Lyrics: 1 My God, my Father, make me strong,
When tasks of life seem hard and long,
To greet them with this triumph song:
Your will be done.
2 Draw from my timid eyes the veil
To show, where earthly forces fail,
Your pow'r and love must still prevail--
Your will be done.
3 With confident and humble mind
In service freedom I will find,
Praying through ev'ry toil assigned:
Your will be done.
4 What seems impossible I dare;
Yours is the call and yours the care.
Your wisdom shall the way prepare--
Your will be done.
5 Heav'n's music chimes the glad days in;
Hope soars beyond death, pain, and sin;
Faith shouts in triumph, Love must win--
Your will be done! Used With Tune: ES IST KEIN TAG

Blessed Jesus, Son of God,
Who, to serve your own creation,
Came to share our flesh and blood.
Guide me that I never may
From your fold or pastures stray,
But with zeal and joy exceeding
Follow where your steps are leading.
2 Hold me ever in your keeping;
Comfort me in pain and strife.
In my laughter and my weeping
Be with me throughout my life.
Give me greater love for you,
And my faith and hope renew
In your birth, your life, and passion,
In your death and resurrection. Used With Tune: FREU DICH SEHR Text Sources: Translation composite
