Author: Anon. Appears in 261 hymnals Lyrics: 1 My Father! cheering name!
Oh, may I call Thee mine?
Give me with humble hope to claim
A portion so divine.
2 This can my fears control,
And bid my sorrows fly:
What real harm can reach my soul
Beneath my Father's eye?
3 Whate'er Thy will denies,
I calmly would resign:
For Thou art just, and good, and wise:
Oh, bend my will to thine!
4 Whate'er Thy will ordains,
Oh, give me strength to bear;
Still let me know a Father reigns,
And trust a Father's care.
5 Thy ways are little known
To my weak, erring sight;
Yet shall my soul, believing, own,
That all Thy ways are right.
Amen. Topics: Adoption; Blessedness of the Righteous; Cheerfulness; Christians Children of God; Fear Dispelled; God our father; Happiness; Heirs of God; Righteousness Blessings of; Sons of God; Trust In God Used With Tune: BRADEN
