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;
Search me and try me,
Master, today.
Whiter than snow, Lord,
Wash me just now,
As in Thy presence
Humbly I bow.

At 40, Adelaide Pollard was trying unsuccessfully to raise support to go to Africa as a missionary. She wondered why the Lord could so burden her with the needs of Africa, but not make it possible for her to go. During this time of discouragement, she attended a small prayer meeting where an elderly woman prayed, "Lord, it doesn't matter what You bring into our lives, just have Your way with us."
That night Pollard went home and read the story of Jeremiah's visit to the potter's house, and later that evening she wrote this hymn. She said that she had always felt the Lord was molding her and preparing her for His service. Then all of a sudden, He seemed to have deserted her.
"Perhaps," she reasoned, "my questioning of God's will shows a flaw in my life. So God decided to break me, as the potter broke the defective vessel, and then to mold my life again in His own pattern." - Great Songs of Faith by Brown & Norton

I pray that His Will will be done in my life, since His Ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts are much better, much more full of understanding, than ours! (Isa .55:9) When we obediently obey to His Way, we'll find that truly "... all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to HIS purpose!" (Rom. 8:28) Praise be to Jesus!

"Thine own way" is a revelation of God! He has a way, and I have a way. Do I invite Him into my way, or let His way have preeminence in all things? Jesus before He went to the cross prayed with an exceeding sorrowful soul, "not as I will, but as You will". "Our Father...thy will be done..." in me as it is in Your heart!

Lord, don't let us win but gain our surrender to You. Gain our entire being until we hold nothing back. Continue saving us all our days.

It's a song of peaceful surrender. Times of surrender are times of breakthroughs for Christians. They are milestones of victories.

We are not our own, but belong to Him, our Lord and Savior.
