MY Lord, Thy will not mine be done:

        Whatever path Thy love shall choose for me,

Through desert sands, or if beside the sea,

 Thy will be done!

Oh, may Thy will in me be done:

Should “harvest” labor be for me Thy will,

Or if I may but suffer and be still,

Thy will be done!

My Father, let Thy will be done:

If sweet the cup Thou pourest for me to drink,

I’ll praise Thee, but if bitter, I’ll not shrink,

Thy will be done!

Forever may Thy will be done:

I would not choose, I leave it all with Thee,

The pilgrimage, if short or long it be,

Thy will be done!
