Lyrics 1 Father, I know that all my life Is portioned out for me; And the changes that are sure to come, I do not fear to see: But I ask Thee for a present mind, Intent on pleasing Thee. 2 I ask Thee for a thoughtful love Through constant watching wise, To meet the glad with joyful smiles And to wipe the weeping eyes; And a heart at leisure from itself To soothe and sympathize. 3 I would not have the restless will That hurries to and fro, Seeking for some great thing to do, Or secret thing to know; I would be treated as a child, And guided where I go. 4 Wherever in the world I am, In whatsoe'er estate, I have a fellowship with hearts To keep and cultivate; And a work of lowly love to do For the Lord on whom I wait. 5 So I ask Thee for the daily strength, To none that ask denied, And a mind to blend with outward life, While keeping at Thy side; Content to fill a little space, If Thou be glorified. 6 In a service which Thy will appoints There are no bonds for me; For my inmost heart is taught the truth That makes Thy children free; And a life of self-renouncing love Is a life of liberty.
My favourite hymn❤❤❤
Lyrics
1 Father, I know that all my life
Is portioned out for me;
And the changes that are sure to come,
I do not fear to see:
But I ask Thee for a present mind,
Intent on pleasing Thee.
2 I ask Thee for a thoughtful love
Through constant watching wise,
To meet the glad with joyful smiles
And to wipe the weeping eyes;
And a heart at leisure from itself
To soothe and sympathize.
3 I would not have the restless will
That hurries to and fro,
Seeking for some great thing to do,
Or secret thing to know;
I would be treated as a child,
And guided where I go.
4 Wherever in the world I am,
In whatsoe'er estate,
I have a fellowship with hearts
To keep and cultivate;
And a work of lowly love to do
For the Lord on whom I wait.
5 So I ask Thee for the daily strength,
To none that ask denied,
And a mind to blend with outward life,
While keeping at Thy side;
Content to fill a little space,
If Thou be glorified.
6 In a service which Thy will appoints
There are no bonds for me;
For my inmost heart is taught the truth
That makes Thy children free;
And a life of self-renouncing love
Is a life of liberty.
