[Father I would Thy will obey]
David, after he had served his own, &c.
—xiii. 36.
Father I would Thy will obey,
Serve Thy church in this my day,
And answer Thy design,
As minister of all and least
Till from my finish'd work I rest
Within the arms Divine.
Serve Thy church in this my day,
And answer Thy design,
As minister of all and least
Till from my finish'd work I rest
Within the arms Divine.
Rest after toil is doubly sweet!
All my cares I shall forget
If Thou my soul receive;
Shall incorruptible arise,
And see Thee with my body's eyes,
And in Thy glory live.
All my cares I shall forget
If Thou my soul receive;
Shall incorruptible arise,
And see Thee with my body's eyes,
And in Thy glory live.
