Have Thine own way, Lord,
Have Thine own way;
Thou art the Potter,
I am the clay.
Mould me and 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,
Savior divine.

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.

This is one of my favourite hymes. I always sing this song when I feel helpless, knowing the sovereign God is my help my peace and joy. Life is full of challenges and singing this song brings me back to a place of rest in my saviour.

One of my favorite songs from childhood to now. Have thine own way Lord. You are the potter and I am the clay.

This song pops into my mind, everytime I can't seem to understand what's happening in my life. The situations, the relationships. But in everything, the one assurance, the one that's all we need, is that He is in Control and He is moulding us into His will.
He will give us what we need, at the right time.

Dede, I read your comment and wanted you to know I am praying for you! God will strengthen you as you seek Him first and trust in His goodness, mercy and love. Continue to be encouraged by this hymn and commit yourself to being willing clay in The Potter's hands.
It has been a one-day-at-a-time journey for me for the past 33 years. He is mighty to save! Trusting that the Lord will bless and keep you! ~Sharon

Powerful lyrics. Interesting to note that the companion to this hymn is the hymn I Surrender All which was published around the same time as Have Thine Own Way.
