Lyrics

Verse 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.

Verse 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.

Verse 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!

Verse 4

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