1. When in the wondrous realms above
Our 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 night
He said, “Thy will, O Lord, be done.”
3. No crown of thorns, no cruel cross
Could 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.”
