Zion still Sings ‎#159

159. Thy Way, O Lord

1 Thy way, O Lord, not mine,
thy will be done not mine;
since thou for me didst bleed,
and now doth intercede,
each day I simply plead,
thy will be done.

Refrain:
Thy will, thy will be done,
thy will, thy will be done;
incline my heart each day to say,
"Thy will be done." Amen.

2 Thy way, O Lord, not mine,
let glory all be thine;
keep me, lest I may stray,
near thee from day to day;
teach me to watch and pray,
thy will be done. [Refrain]

3 Hide me from self, O Lord,
may I attend thy word;
send pride beyond recall,
let each assailer fall,
be thou my all in all,
thy will be done. [Refrain]

4 Submissively, I bow;
with strength and grace endow
this weary, sinful heart;
shield from each cruel dart;
may I from thee ne'er part,
thy will be done. [Refrain]
