1. When in the wondrous realms aboveOur Savior had been called upon,To save our world of sin by love,He said, “Thy will, O Lord, be done.”
2. The King of kings left worlds of light,Became the meek and lowly one;In brightest day or darkest nightHe said, “Thy will, O Lord, be done.”
3. No crown of thorns, no cruel crossCould make our great Redeemer shun.He counted his own will but loss,And said, “Thy will, O Lord, be done.”
4. We take the bread and cup this day,In memory of the Sinless One,And pray for strength, that we may say,As he, “Thy will, O Lord, be done.”
