Thy Will Be Done as 'Tis in Heaven

6

(FIAT VOLUNTAS TUA )

I. Williams

F. X. Moreau

1. Thy will be done as 'tis in heaven,
   By every creature here below;
   Thy will be done, most loving Father,
   From whom all grace and blessings flow.
   
   Refrain
   ⁠'Even to highest heaven, Loud let our voices ring;
   ⁠Thy will be done, Thou art our Father;
   ⁠Thy will be done, Thou art our King.
   ⁠Thy will be done, Thou art our Father,
   ⁠Thy will be done, Thou art our King!
   
2. When from our hearts all joy seems fading,
   When griefs and trials, one by one,
   O'erwhelm our souls; then in our sorrow,
   Teach us to say 'Thy will be done.'
   ⁠Refrain
   
3. In joy or grief, whate'er befall us,
   E'en till the sands of life be run,
   In life and death this is our watchword:
   'Thy will be done, thy will be done.'
   ⁠Refrain
