436. 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.
Open mine eyes, my sin show me 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; then all shall see
Christ only, always, living in me.
