Thomas Wilson (1663-1755)

Grant, gracious father,
that I may never dispute the reasonableness of Thy will,
but ever close with it,
as the best that can happen.
Prepare me always for what Thy Providence shall bring forth.
Let me never murmur,
be dejected, or impatient,
under any of the troubles of this life,
but ever rest and comfort in this,
THIS IS THE WILL OF MY FATHER,
AND OF MY GOD:
grant this for Jesus Christ’s sake.
Amen
