<p>Thy way, not mine, O Lord,<br>
However dark it be;<br>
Lead me by Thine own hand,<br>
Choose out the path for me.</p>
<p>Smooth let it be or rough,<br>
It will be still the best;<br>
Winding or straight, it leads<br>
Right onward to Thy rest.</p>
<p>I dare not choose my lot;<br>
I would not, if I might;<br>
Choose Thou for me, my God,<br>
So I shall walk aright.</p>
<p>Take Thou my cup, and it<br>
With joy or sorrow fill,<br>
As best to Thee may seem;<br>
Choose Thou my good and ill.</p>
<p>Choose Thou for me my friends,<br>
My sickness or my health;<br>
Choose Thou my cares for me<br>
My poverty or wealth.</p>
<p>The kingdom that I seek<br>
Is Thine: so let the way<br>
That leads to it be Thine,<br>
Else I must surely stray.</p>
<p>Not mine, not mine the choice<br>
In things or great or small;<br>
Be Thou my Guide, my Strength<br>
My Wisdom, and my All.</p>
