IN AFFLICTION.
Reading edition
Father! Thy will, not mine, be done! So prayed on earth Thy suffering Son, So, in His name I pray: The spirit fails, the flesh is weak; Thy help in agony I seek; O! take this cup away. If such be not Thy sovereign will, Thy wiser purpose then fulfil; My wishes I resign, Into Thine hands my soul commend, On Thee for life or death depend; Thy will be done, not mine. —James Montgomery.
