Red Letter my god my father

My God my father while I stray
Far from my home and life rough way
Oh teach me from my heart to say
Thy will be done
Though dark my path and sad my lot
May me be still and murmur not
or breath the prayer divinly taught
Thy will be done
And if my fainting heart be blest
With the holy spirit as it's guest
My God to thee I leave the rest
Thy will be done
Renew my will from day day
mix it with thine and take away
all that which makes it hard to say
thy will be done
If thou hast called me to resign
what most I prized never was mine
I yield thee only what is thine
Thy will be done
And when on earth I breath no more
the prayer oft mixed with tears before
I'll sing upon that Joyful shore
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done...
