Representative lyrics
English (Original Language)
1. When in the wondrous realms aboveOur Savior had been called uponTo 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 crossCould make our great Redeemer shun.He counted his own will but naught,And said, “Thy will, O Lord, be done.”
4. We take the bread and cup this dayIn mem’ry of the sinless One,And pray for strength, that we may say,As he, “Thy will, O Lord, be done.”
