Lie still, and let Him mould thee

E450
1
Lie still, and let Him mould thee!
  Oh, Lord, I would obey;
Be Thou the skillful Potter,
  And I the yielding clay.
 
Bend me, oh, bend me to Thy will,
While in Thy hand I’m lying still.
2
In Thy dear hand I’m resting,
  Oh, hold me quiet there;
Then soften me and mould me,
  And for Thy will prepare.
3
I need not fear to trust Thee,
  Thy love and skill are such,
New lessons Thou wilt teach me,
  While yielding to Thy touch.
4
Impress Thine image on me,
  Fulfil Thy blest design,
Till others see upon me
  That beauteous face of Thine.

Bend me; don't break me, Lord, until I reflect Your image: "Till others see upon me" Thy face. This song is exactly my prayer--that God will change me into His design for me.
