My God, my Father, while I stray

Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #667a (1894) Meter: 8.8.8.4 Lyrics: 1 My God, my 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 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!" 6 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!" 7 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." Amen. Topics: Burial of the Dead; Home and Personal Use; Submission Languages: English Tune Title: [My God, my Father, while I stray]
