Have Thine own way, Lord,

Have Thine own way;

Thou art the Potter, I am the clay.

Mould me and make me after Thy will,

While I am waiting, Yielded and still.


Have Thine own way, Lord,

Have Thine own way;

Search me and try me, Master, today.

Whiter than snow, Lord, Wash me just now,

As in Thy presence, Humbly I bow.


Have Thine own way, Lord,

Have Thine own way;

Wounded and weary, Help me, I pray.

Power, all power, Surely is Thine,

Touch me and heal me, Savior divine.


Have Thine own way, Lord,

Have Thine own way;

Hold o?er my being absolute sway.

Fill with Thy Spirit till all shall see

Christ only, always, Living in me.
