My God, My Father, Make Me Strong

Author: Frederick Mann, 1846-1928 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4220 Meter: 8.8.8.4 Lyrics: 1. My God, my Father, make me strong, When tasks of life seem hard and long, To greet them with this triumph song, Thy will be done. 2. Draw from my timid eyes the veil, To show, where earthly forces fail, Thy power and love must still prevail, Thy will be done. 3. With confident and humble mind, Freedom in service I would find, Praying through every toil assigned, Thy will be done. 4. Things deemed impossible I dare; Thine is the call and Thine the care; Thy wisdom shall the way prepare; Thy will be done. 5. All power is here and round me now; Faithful I stand in rule and vow, While ’tis not I, but ever Thou: Thy will be done. 6. Heaven’s music chimes the glad days in; Hope soars beyond death, pain and sin; Faith shouts in triumph, “Love must win?; Thy will be done. Languages: English Tune Title: ALMSGIVING (Dykes)

My God, Is Any Hour So Sweet

Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4225 Meter: 8.8.8.4 Lyrics: 1. My God, is any hour so sweet From blush of morn to evening star, As that which calls me to Thy feet— The hour of prayer? 2. Blest is that tranquil hour of morn, And blest that hour of solemn eve, When, on the wings of prayer upborne, The world I leave. 3. Then is my strength by Thee renewed; Then are my sins by Thee forgiv’n; Then dost Thou cheer my solitude With hopes of Heav’n. 4. No words can tell what sweet relief There for my every want I find, What strength for warfare, balm for grief, What peace of mind. 5. Hushed is each doubt, gone every fear; My spirit seems in Heav’n to stay; And e’en the penitential tear Is wiped away. 6. Lord, till I reach yon blissful shore, No privilege so dear shall be As thus my inmost soul to pour In prayer to Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: ALMSGIVING (Dykes)

My God and Father! While I Stray

Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4232 Meter: 8.8.8.4 Lyrics: 1. My God and Father! while I stray Far from my home in life’s rough way, Oh! teach me from my heart to say, Thy will be done! 2. 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! 3. What though in lonely grief I sigh, For friends beloved, no longer nigh, Submissive still would I reply, Thy will be done! 4. If Thou shouldst call me to resign What most I prize, it ne’er was mine; I only yield Thee what was Thine; Thy will be done! 5. Should pining sickness waste away, My life in premature decay, My Father! still I strive to say, Thy will be done! 6. If 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! 7. Renew my will from day to day, Blend it with Thine, and take away All now that makes it hard to say, Thy will be done! 8. 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! Languages: English Tune Title: HANFORD (Sullivan)

The Radiant Morn Hath Passed Away

Where light, and life, and joy, and peace In undivided empire reign, And thronging angels never cease Their deathless strain. 5. Where saints are clothed in spotless white, And evening shadows never fall; Where Thou, eternal Light of light, Art Lord of all. Languages: English Tune Title: RADIANT MORN

Through Good Report and Evil, Lord

Through good report and evil, Lord, Still guided by Thy faithful Word, Our staff, our buckler and our sword, We follow Thee. 2.

Strengthened by Thee we forward go, ’Mid smile or scoff of friend or foe, Through pain or ease, through joy or woe, We follow Thee. 4. With enemies on every side, We lean on Thee, the Crucified; Forsaking all on earth beside, We follow Thee. 5. O Master, point Thou out the way, Nor suffer Thou our steps to stray; Then in the path that leads to day We follow Thee. 6. Thou hast passed on before our face; Thy footsteps on the way we trace; O keep us, aid us by Thy grace; We follow Thee. 7. Whom have we in the heaven above, Whom on this earth, save Thee, to love? Still in Thy light we onward move; We follow Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: HANFORD (Sullivan)

Thy Will Is Done

Author: Frederic Smith Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9991 Meter: 8.8.8.4 First Line: O God, not only in distress Lyrics: 1 O God, not only in distress, In pain, and want, and weariness, Thy tender Spirit stoops to bless, Thy will is done. 2 But oftener on the wings of peace, And girt about with tenderness, Thou comest, and all troubles cease, Thy will is done. 3 In all that nature has supplied, In flowers along the country side, In morning light, in eventide, Thy will is done. 4 And when a wayward wind is borne, So lightly on a summer morn, To stir the golden ears of corn, Thy will is done. 5 In youthful days when joys increase, In light, in hope, in happiness, In quiet times of trustful peace, Thy will is done. 6 And when the joy of life is strong, And hidden music steals along Our days with rapture and with song, Thy will is done. 7 And when the widowed heart can bring Its sorrow to Thy feet, and cling, Till hope surpasses sorrowing, Thy will is done. 8 Thy will is pure, O Lord, and just, And we, frail creatures of the dust, Through good or ill, can only trust, Thy will is done. 9 For high above all earthly ill, Thy purer wisdom worketh still; And we would wait, and trust, until Thy will is done. 10 And through the clouds from sunny skies A light shall fall where sorrow lies; Thou speakest, and the heart replies, Thy will is done. 11 Descend and make Thy goodness known, Claim all creation for Thine own, Then, when all hearts are Thine alone, Thy will be done.
