My  God, my father  while  I stray
 along  my path, in life's  rough way,
 Lord, teach  me from my heart  to say,
"Thy will  be done. 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." Thy will  be done.
 If thou  should call  me to resign,
 what once  I prize never  was mine.
 I only  yield thee what  is thine!
Thy will  be done. Thy will  be done.
 And, 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. Thy will  be done."
