Thy Way, Not Mine, O Lord,
However Dark It Be;
Lead Me By Thine Own Hand,
Choose Out The Path For Me.

Smooth Let It Be Or Rough,
It Will Be Still The Best;
Winding Or Straight, It Leads
Right Onward To Thy Rest.

I Dare Not Choose My Lot;
I Would Not, If I Might;
Choose Thou For Me, My God,
So I Shall Walk Aright.

Take Thou My Cup, And It
With Joy Or Sorrow Fill,
As Best To Thee May Seem;
Choose Thou My Good And Ill.

Choose Thou For Me My Friends,
My Sickness Or My Health;
Choose Thou My Cares For Me,
My Poverty Or Wealth.

The Kingdom That I Seek
Is Thine: So Let The Way
That Leads To It Be Thine,
Else I Must Surely Stray.

Not Mine, Not Mine The Choice
In Things Or Great Or Small;
Be Thou My Guide, My Strength
My Wisdom, And My All.
