CityAlight's 'Your Will Be Done' is a modern hymn that explores the theme of surrender to God's will, drawing directly from Jesus' prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane. The song acknowledges human tendencies toward self-exaltation and fear, while pointing to Christ's example of obedience and trust in the Father. It reflects on the weight of Jesus' sacrifice and the hope of resurrection, encouraging believers to pray for God's will in their own lives. The lyrics also look forward to eternal glory and the church's mission to make God's name known.

Your will be done, my God and Father

As in heaven, so on earth

My heart is drawn to self-exalting

Help me seek Your kingdom first

As Jesus walked, so I shall walk

Held by Your same unchanging love

Be still my soul, O lift your voice and pray:

?Father, not my will but Yours be done.?


How in that Garden he persisted

I may never fully know

The fearful weight of true obedience

It was held by him alone

What wondrous faith, to bear that cross!

To bear my sin, what wondrous love!

My hope was sure, when there my Saviour prayed:

?Father, not my will but Yours be done.?


When I am lost, when I am broken

In the night of fear and doubt

Still I will trust in my good Father

Yes, to one great King I bow!

As Jesus rose, so I shall rise

In ransomed glory at the throne

My heart restored

With all your saints I sing:

?Father, not my will but Yours be done!?


As we go forth, our God and Father

Lead us daily in the fight

That all the world might see Your glory

And Your Name be lifted high

And in this Name we overcome

For You shall see us safely home

Now as your church, we lift our voice and pray: 

?Father, not my will but Yours be done!?
