Thy Will Be Done

Representative Text

1. Thy will be done,
Thy will be done;
Lord, thou hast taught us all to say
Thy will be done.

Refrain:
Thy will be done,
Thy will be done;
Lord, from my heart I truly say,
Thy will be done.

2. Thy will be done,
Thy will be done;
If this cup may not pass from me,
Thy will be done.

3. Thy will be done,
Thy will be done;
I'll bear the cross, endure the loss,
Thy will be done.

4. Thy will be done,
Thy will be done;
If I must suffer, Lord, for thee,
Thy will be done.

5. Thy will be done,
Thy will be done;
Only bestow thy grace on me,
Thy will be done.
