THY WILL BE DONE.

We see not, know not. All our way Is night. With Thee alone is day. From out the torrent's troubled drift, Above the storm, our prayers we lift— Thy will be done!
The flesh may fail, the heart may faint, But who are we, to make complaint, Or dare to plead, in times like these, The weakness of our love of ease? Thy will be done!
We take with solemn thankfulness Our burden up, nor ask it less, And count it joy that even we May suffer, serve, or wait for Thee, Whose will be done!
Strike! Thou the Master, we Thy keys, The anthem of the destinies! The minor of Thy loftier strain, Our hearts shall breathe the old refrain— Thy will be done!
