The Master’s Will, for This I Pray

[119 words]

The Master’s will, for this I pray, Whatever it may be!
I do not want to miss Your best; Reveal it, Lord, to me.

My own desires may lead me wrong, I must consult my God;
His counsel will be justified, When all the way I’ve trod.

O soul of mine, delight in Him! His Word discern, obey!
The plan you seek to know will then unfold from day to day.

We do not live our lives alone: If I am in God’s will,
The lives of others will be helped, His purpose to fulfill!

My all, O Lord, I give to You, My body, mind and soul;
May all the days that lie ahead, be under Your control.
