My Jesus, as thou wilt! O may thy will be mine! Into thy hand of love I would my all resign; Through sorrow or through joy, Conduct me as Thine own, And help me still to say, My Lord, thy will be done! | 360 My Jesus, as thou wilt! Though seen through many a tear, Let not my star of hope Grow dim or disappear; Since thou on earth hast wept, And sorrowed oft alone, If I must weep with thee, My Lord, thy will be done! | My Jesus, as thou wilt! All shall be well for me; Each changing future scene I gladly trust with thee: Straight to my home above I travel calmly on, And sing in life or death, My Lord, thy will be done! | |
