My God and Father, while I stray

Author: Charlotte Elliott (Mrs. Tonna), 1789-1871 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #519a (1917) Lyrics: 1 My God and 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." 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 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. 7 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." 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." Topics: The Christian Life The Inner Life; God Will of; Fatherhood, of God; Will Of God; Sickness, bodily ; Resignation Languages: English Tune Title: WINTERBOURNE
