Thy will be done! In devious way
The hurrying stream of life may run;
Yet still our grateful hearts shall say,
Thy will be done!
Thy will be done! If o'er us shine
A gladdening and a prosperous sun,
This prayer will make it more divine-
Thy will be done!
Thy will be done-though shrouded o'er
Our path with gloom; one comfort-one
Is ours-to breathe while we adore-
Thy will be done!
Thy will be done-above-below-
Here and hereafter. We have none
Holier desires to proffer-No!
Thy will be done!
