My Stubborn Will at Last Hath Yielded
"I delight to do Thy will, O my God." - Ps 40:8
VERSE 1
My stubborn will at last hath yielded;
I would be Thine and Thine alone;
And this the prayer my lips are bringing,
Lord, let in me Thy will be done.
CHORUS
Sweet will of God, still fold me closer,
Till I am wholly lost in Thee;
Sweet will of God, still fold me closer,
Till I am wholly lost in Thee.
VERSE 2
I'm tried of sin, footsore and weary,
The darksome path hath dreary grown,
But now a light has ris'n to cheer me!
I find in Thee my Star, my Sun.
CHORUS
Sweet will of God, still fold me closer,
Till I am wholly lost in Thee;
Sweet will of God, still fold me closer,
Till I am wholly lost in Thee.
VERSE 3
Thy precious will, O conquering Saviour,
Doth now embrace and compass me;
All discords hushed, my peace a river,
My soul, a prisoned bird set free.
CHORUS
Sweet will of God, still fold me closer,
Till I am wholly lost in Thee;
Sweet will of God, still fold me closer,
Till I am wholly lost in Thee.
VERSE 4
Shut in with Thee, O Lord, for ever,
My wayward feet no more to roam;
What power from Thee my soul can sever?
The center of God's will my home.
CHORUS
Sweet will of God, still fold me closer,
Till I am wholly lost in Thee;
Sweet will of God, still fold me closer,
Till I am wholly lost in Thee.
