The only guide we have in life,
Is God's dear will, God's holy will,
Our comfort sure in pain and strife,
Is God's dear holy will.
Though the path seem dark and dreary,
And thy aching heart be weary,
Let this tho't console and cheer thee,
'Tis God's holy will.

If you desire true peace of mind,
Do God's dear will, God's holy will,
No surer way you'll ever find
Than God's dear holy will.
There is stored a priceless treasure.
There are joys beyond all measure
There alone is truest pleasure
In God's holy will.

The angels bright enthroned above
Do God's dear will, God's holy will,
The object of Dear Mary's love
Is God's dear holy will.
"twas the food of Jesus ever,
No
human power its claim can sever,
'Twill be our joy in Heav'n forever
'Tis God's holy will.
