LyicsHow sweet to be al-lowed to pray
To God the ho-ly One,
With fil-ial love and trust to say,
O God, thy will be done.
We in these sacred words can find
A cure for every ill,
They calm and soothe the troubled mind,
And bid all care be still.
O let that will, which gave me breath,
And an immortal soul,
In joy or grief, in life or death,
My every wish control.
O could my heart thus ever pray,
Thus imitate thy son!
Teach me, O God, with truth to say,
"Thy will, not mine, be done."
