What Wilt Thou Have Me to Do?

Representative Text

1 Lord, Thou hast granted salvation to me,
What wilt Thou have me to do?
From Satan’s bondage at last I am free,
What wilt Thou have me to do?

Refrain:
What wilt Thou have me to do?
Where wilt Thou have me to go?
Jesus, my Master, Thy will shall be mine,
What wilt Thou have me to do?

2 Since I am saved by the Crucified One,
What wilt Thou have me to do?
I would point others to God’s only Son,
What wilt Thou have me to do? [Refrain]

3 Pardon is granted thro’ Him who hath died,
What wilt Thou have me to do?
I am so happy with Thee at my side,
What wilt Thou have me to do? [Refrain]

4 Ready and willing Thy voice to obey,
What wilt Thou have me to do?
Bid me to follow Thee day unto day,
What wilt Thou have me to do? [Refrain]
