Thy Will Be Done.

By George Pope Morris

Searcher of Hearts!--from mine erase All thoughts that should not be, And in its deep recesses trace My gratitude to Thee! Hearer of Prayer!--oh, guide aright Each word and deed of mine; Life's battle teach me how to fight, And be the victory Thine. Giver of All!--for every good-- In the Redeemer came-- For raiment, shelter, and for food, I thank Thee in His name. Father and Son and Holy Ghost! Thou glorious Three in One! Thou knowest best what I need most, And let Thy will be done.
