How sweet to be allowed to pray
To God, the Holy One,
With filial love and trust to say,
O God, Thy will be done!
We in these sacred words can find
A cure for every ill;
They calm and soothe the troubled mind,
And bid all care be still.
O could my heart thus ever pray,
Thus imitate Thy Son!
Teach me, O God, with truth to say,
Thy will, not mine, be done.
Mary Orange Edwards
