Thy will be done

Peter Cornelius

Bless, o heart, each joyous day,

That the Lord doth give thee,

To his gladness turn thee,

Thankful ever,

Beat aloud thy praise.

But fear not the night of pain!

Trust in God's true way,

For he soon will show thee,

That His blessing

With thee doth remain.

For as night doth follow day,

Joy will follow sorrow,

He who both created,

In His wisdom,

Works thy good alway.
