My God, My Father, While I Stray

Author: Charlotte Elliott, 1789-1871 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #332 (1957) Topics: The Christian Way of Life Aspiration and Consecration Lyrics: 1 My God, my Father, while I stray Far from my home in life’s rough way, O teach me from my heart to say, “Thy will be done!” 2 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!” 3 If Thou shouldst call me to resign What most I prize, it ne’er was mine; I only yield Thee what was Thine; “Thy will be done!” 4 Let but my fainting heart be blest With Thy sweet Spirit for its guest, My God, to Thee I leave the rest; “Thy will be done!” 5 Renew my will from day to day, Blend it with Thine, and take away All that now makes it hard to say, “Thy will be done!” Amen.
