Father, I know that all my life

Author: Miss Anna L. Waring, 1823-1910 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #496 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Father, I know that all my life Is portioned out for me; And the changes that are sure to come I do not fear to see; But I ask Thee for a present mind Intent on pleasing Thee. 2 I ask thee for a thoughtful love, Through constant watching wise, To meet the glad with joyful smiles, And wipe the weeping eyes; And a heart at leisure from itself, To soothe and sympathize. 3 I would not have the restless will That hurries to and fro, Seeking for some great thing to do, Or secret thing to know: I would be treated as a child, And guided where I go. 4 Wherever in the world I am, In whatsoe'er estate, I have a fellowship with hearts To keep and cultivate; And a work of lowly love to do For the Lord on whom I wait. 5 So I ask Thee for the daily strength, To none that ask denies; And a mind to blend with outward life, While keeping at Thy side; Content to fill a little space, If Thou be glorified.

Father, I know that all my life

Author: A. L. Waring Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #550 (1920) Lyrics: 1 Father, I know that all my life Is portioned out for me; And the changes that are sure to come, I do not fear to see: But I ask Thee for a present mind, Intent on pleasing Thee. 2 I ask Thee for a thoughtful love Through constant watching wise, To meet the glad with joyful smiles And to wipe the weeping eyes; And a heart at leisure from itself To soothe and sympathize. 3 I would not have the restless will That hurries to and fro, Seeking for some great thing to do, Or secret thing to know; I would be treated as a child, And guided where I go. 4 Wherever in the world I am, In whatsoe'er estate, I have a fellowship with hearts To keep and cultivate; And a work of lowly love to do For the Lord on whom I wait. 5 So I ask Thee for the daily strength, To none that ask denied, And a mind to blend with outward life, While keeping at Thy side; Content to fill a little space, If Thou be glorified. 6 In a service which Thy will appoints There are no bonds for me; For my inmost heart is taught the truth That makes Thy children free; And a life of self-renouncing love Is a life of liberty.

Father, I know that all my life

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #79 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Father, I know that all my life Is portion'd out by Thee; The changes that will surely come I do not fear to see: I ask Thee for a present mind, Intent on pleasing Thee. 2 I ask Thee for a thoughtful love, Through constant watching wise, To meet the glad with joyful smiles, And to wipe the weeping eyes; A heart at leisure from itself, To soothe and sympathize. 3 I would not have the restless will That hurries to and fro, That seeks for some great thing to do, Or secret thing to know: I would be treated as a child, And guided where I go. 4 Wherever in the world I am, In whatsoe'er estate, I have a fellowship with hearts, To keep and cultivate; A work of lowly love to do For Him on whom I wait. 5 I ask Thee for the daily strength, To none that ask denied, A mind to blend with outward life, While keeping at Thy side; Content to fill a little space, If Thou be glorified. 6 And if some things I do not ask, Among my blessings be, I'd have my spirit filled the more With grateful love to Thee; More careful, not to serve Thee much, But please Thee perfectly.
