Have Thine own way Lord! Have Thine own way!
Thou art the Potter, I am the clay!
Mold me a 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 Saviour Divine!
Have Thine own way Lord! Have Thine own way!
Hold o'er my being absolute away!
Fill with Thy Spirit 'till all shall see
Christ only, always living in me!
Thou art the Potter, I am the clay!
Mold me a 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 Saviour Divine!
Have Thine own way Lord! Have Thine own way!
Hold o'er my being absolute away!
Fill with Thy Spirit 'till all shall see
Christ only, always living in me!
Have Thine Own Way Lord!
