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, 
	Savior today! 
	Wash me just now, Lord, 
	wash me just 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 
	till all shall see 
	Christ only, always, 
	living in me!
