Pollard was convinced the Lord wanted her in Africa as a missionary. She tried to raise funds to go, but was unsuccessful. It was in this uncertain state of mind that she attended a prayer meeting. There, she heard an elderly woman pray, &#8220;It&#8217;s all right,
Lord. It doesn&#8217;t matter what You bring into our lives, just have Your own way with us.&#8221; At home that night, much encouraged, she wrote this hymn.

<p>Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way!<br>
Thou art the Potter, I am the clay.<br>
Mold me and make me after Thy will,<br>
While I am waiting, yielded and still.</p>
<p>Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way!<br>
Search me and try me, Master, today!<br>
Whiter than snow, Lord, wash me just now,<br>
As in Thy presence humbly I bow.</p>
<p>Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way!<br>
Wounded and weary, help me, I pray!<br>
Power, all power, surely is Thine!<br>
Touch me and heal me, Savior divine.</p>
<p>Have Thine own way, Lord! Have Thine own way!<br>
Hold o&#8217;er my being absolute sway!<br>
Fill with Thy Spirit &#8217;till all shall see<br>
Christ only, always, living in me.</p>
