Father in Heaven! to Thee I pray,
To Thee for grace I come;
O help me from my heart to say,
Father, Thy will be done!

Refrain

Make me re­signed to good or ill,
While life its course shall run:
Though dark or bright my path­way, still,
Father, Thy will be done!

And e’en tho’ long and toil­some be
The race which I must run,
Yet I would hum­bly ask of Thee,
Father, Thy will be done!

Refrain

Though cares and tri­als I must meet,
My cross I would not shun,
But say be­fore the mer­cy seat,
Father, Thy will be done!

Refrain

And when at last the an­gel Death
Says, Come, the con­flict’s won,
Help me to say with lat­est breath,
Father, Thy will be done!

Refrain
