Matthew 6:10. (1097) Jesus, while our hearts are bleeding O'er the spoils that death has won, We would at this solemn meeting, Calmly say, -- thy will be done. 2 Though cast down, we're not forsaken; Though afflicted, not alone; Thou didst give, and thou hast taken; Blessed Lord, -- thy will be done. 3 Though to-day we're filled with mourning, Mercy still is on the throne; With thy smiles of love returning, We can sing -- thy will be done. 4 By thy hands the boon was given, Thou hast taken but thine own: Lord of earth, and God of heaven, Evermore, -- thy will be done! Thomas Hastings.
