|
|
<p>Father, let me dedicate, all this year to Thee,<br>
|
|
In whatever worldly state Thou wilt have me be:<br>
|
|
Not from sorrow, pain or care, freedom dare I claim;<br>
|
|
This alone shall be my prayer, glorify Thy Name.</p>
|
|
<p>Can a child presume to choose where or how to live?<br>
|
|
Can a Father’s love refuse all the best to give?<br>
|
|
More Thou givest every day than the best can claim<br>
|
|
Nor withholdest aught that may glorify Thy Name.</p>
|
|
<p>If in mercy Thou wilt spare joys that yet are mine;<br>
|
|
If on life, serene and fair, brighter rays may shine;<br>
|
|
Let my glad heart, while it sings, Thee in all proclaim,<br>
|
|
And, whate’er the future brings, glorify Thy Name.</p>
|
|
<p>If Thou callest to the cross, and its shadow come,<br>
|
|
Turning all my gain to loss, shrouding heart and home;<br>
|
|
Let me think how Thy dear Son to His glory came,<br>
|
|
And in deepest woe pray on, “Glorify Thy Name.”</p>
|
|
</div>

<p><em>Some hymnals alter the last verse to:</em></p>
|
|
<div class="lyrics">
|
|
<p>If we must in grief and loss Thy behest obey,<br>
|
|
If beneath the shadowy cross liest our homeward way;<br>
|
|
We will think what Thy dear Son once for us became,<br>
|
|
And repeat till life is done, glorify Thy Name.</p>
