Thy way, not mine, O Lord
- 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 shall I 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. - Not mine, not mine the choice,
In things both great and small;
Be Thou my guide, my strength,
My wisdom and my all.

May 26, 2009Steve MillerDetroit, MI, United StatesThis hymn is sweetly comforting. It reminds me that everything I pass through, great or small, is ordered by the Father's hand, and I wouldn't have it any other way. It reminds me of Psalm 16:6 "The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places, a goodly heritage."
