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
