Lord, what You will let it be so
Where You will there we will go
What is Your will help us to know.
Lord, when You will the time is right
In You there's joy in strife
For Your will I give my life
To ease the burden brings no pain
To forego all for You is gain
As long as I in You remain
Because you will it, it is best
Because You will it we are blest
'Til in Your hands our hearts finds rest
Our hearts finds rest
'Til in Your hand our hearts find rest.
Lord, when You will the time is right
In You there's joy in strife
For Your will I give my life
To ease the burden brings no pain
To forego all for You is gain
As long as I in You remain
Because you will it, it is best
Because You will it we are blest
'Til in Your hands our hearts finds rest




Our hearts finds rest
'Til in Your hands our hearts finds rest
