To God's Will Completely Given

Old Testament Prophecy:  "The people walking in darkness have seen a great light;  on those living in the land of the shadow of death a light has dawned."   Isaiah 9:2

 

New Testament Fulfillment:  "In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.  And the light shines in the darkness..." John 1:4-5

 

To God's will completely given,

Lies the Child so trustfully.

Resting in the Father's purpose,

Helpless though He seems to be.

 

Your whole being dedicated

God's good pleasure to fulfill,

So the splendor of His purpose

Shines through your surrendered will.

 

Little Child, so humbly trustful,

"All is well," to us You say:

"For all comes from God the Father,

Wisely He directs my way.

 

Teach me Jesus, to be trustful

In my Father's will to rest,

As He guides, corrects and trains me

With me deals as He sees best.

 

Little Jesus, You have shown me

That God's will is wise and kind.

In His heart I will find refuge,

For Your Father now is mine.

 

 

“Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who… humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death….”  Philippians 2:5,8
