313. Have Thine Own Way, Lord

1 Have Thine own way, Lord!
Have Thine own way!
Thou art the potter,
I am the clay!
Mold me and make me
After Thy will,
While I am waiting,
Yielded and still.

2 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.

3 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!

4 Have Thine own way, Lord!
Have Thine own way!
Hold o'er my being
Absolute sway!
Fill with Thy Spirit
'Til all shall see
Christ only, always,
Living in me!

Amen.
