What Does the Master expect of me

Author: Geo. O. Webster Hymnal: Hymns for Today #206 (1920) First Line: What does the Master expect of me? Refrain First Line: What is Thy will, Thy will for me Lyrics: 1 What does the Master expect of me? I would know His will; Is there a place where I ought to be? I that place would fill; Lead me, O Master, from day to day, Patiently teach me Thy will, I pray, All on the altar just now I lay; What is Thy will for me? Refrain: What is Thy will, Thy will for me, Help me to clearly see; Help me to do it, whatever it be, Only Thy will for me. 2 Is it a high or a lowly place? What is that to me? Just for the smiling of Thy dear face Anywhere I’d be; When I remember the cruel cross, Think of the anguish, the pain and loss, Honors of earth I can count but dross; What is Thy will for me? [Refrain] 3 O that Thy love may to others flow Thru this heart of mine; Help me to live that the world may know Of Thy love divine; Thou who in pity our lot didst share, Help me to lighten earth’s grief and care, Help me the burdens of men to bear; What is Thy will for me?
