I worship Thee, sweet will of God

Frederick William Faber (1840) • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 37:4

Verse 1

I worship thee, sweet Will of God, And all thy ways adore; And every day I live, I seem To love thee more and more.

Verse 2

I love to see thee bring to naught The plans of wily men; Where simple hearts outwit the wise, Oh, thou art loveliest then.

Verse 3

I love to kiss each print where thou Hast set thine unseen feet; I cannot fear thee, blessed Will! Thine empire is so sweet.

Verse 4

Ride on, ride on, triumphantly, Thou glorious Will! ride on; Faith's pilgrim sons, behind thee, take The road that thou hast won.
