My God and Father, while I stray
Author: Charlotte Elliott (Mrs. Tonna), 1789-1871 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #519a (1917) Topics: God Will of; Will Of God Lyrics: 1 My God and Father, while I stray
Far from my home in life's rough way,
O teach me from my heart to say,
"Thy will be done."
2 Though dark my path and sad my lot,
Let me be still and murmur not,
Or breathe the prayer divinely taught,
"Thy will be done."
3 What though in lonely grief I sigh
For friends beloved, no longer nigh,
Submissive still would I reply,
"Thy will be done."
4 If Thou shouldst call me to resign
What most I prize, it ne'er was mine,
I only yield Thee what was Thine:
Thy will be done.
5 Should pining sickness waste away
My life in premature decay,
My Father, still I strive to say,
"Thy will be done."
6 Let but my fainting heart be blest
With Thy sweet Spirit for its guest,
My God, to Thee I leave the rest:
Thy will be done.
7 Renew my will from day to day;
Blend it with Thine; and take away
All that now makes it hard to say,
"Thy will be done."
8 Then, when on earth I breathe no more
The prayer oft mixed with tears before,
I'll sing upon a happier shore,
"Thy will be done." Languages: English Tune Title: WINTERBOURNE

God Is Working His Purpose Out
Author: Arthur C. Ainger Hymnal: The Worshiping Church #750 (1990) Meter: Irregular Topics: Will of God; Will of God Lyrics: 1 God is working his purpose out,
as year succeeds to year:
God is working his purpose out,
and the time is drawing near;
nearer and nearer draws the time,
the time that shall surely be,
when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.
2 From utmost east to utmost west,
where'er the church has gone,
by the mouth of many messengers
the call of God has come:
Listen to me, you continents;
you isles, give ear to me,
that the earth may be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.
3 March we forth in the strength of God,
with the banner of Christ unfurled,
that the light of the glorious gospel of truth
may shine throughout the world:
fight we the fight with sorrow and sin
to set their captives free,
that the earth may be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea.
4 All we can do is done in vain
unless God blesses the deed;
vainly we hope for the harvesttide
till God gives life to the seed;
yet nearer and nearer draws the time,
the time that shall surely be,
when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God
as the waters cover the sea. Scripture: Isaiah 11:9 Languages: English Tune Title: PURPOSE

God Moves in a Mysterious Way
Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #434 (1987) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Will of God; Will of God Lyrics: 1 God moves in a mysterious way
his wonders to perform.
He plants his footsteps in the sea
and rides upon the storm.
2 Deep in unfathomable mines
of never-failing skill,
he treasures up his bright designs
and works his sovereign will.
3 You fearful saints, fresh courage take;
the clouds you so much dread
are big with mercy and shall break
in blessings on your head.
4 His purposes will ripen fast,
unfolding every hour.
The bud may have a bitter taste,
but sweet will be the flower.
5 Blind unbelief is sure to err
and scan his work in vain.
God is his own interpreter,
and he will make it plain.
Scripture: Psalm 62:1-8 Languages: English Tune Title: DUNDEE
