Everlasting Word Band - My God, My Father Lyrics

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

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

But if my fainting heart be blessed
With the Holy Spirit for its guest
My God! to Thee I leave the rest
Thy will be done

If Thou should call me to resign
What most I prize, never was mine
I only yield Thee what is Thine
Thy will be done

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

Then when on earth I breathe no more
The prayer oft mixed with tears before
I'll sing upon that joyful shore
Thy will be done
